Bc Oysters Recipe

Carefully shuck the fresh East Coast oysters and place them on a serving platter with ice to keep them chilled.

Sauté the Spinach

In a large skillet, add a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic cloves and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.

Prepare the Cream Sauce

In a saucepan, combine heavy cream and cream cheese over low heat. Stir until the cream cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth. Add the sautéed spinach, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and let simmer for 2-3 minutes.

Cook the Bacon

In a skillet, cook the applewood smoked bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.

Prepare the Roasted Red Pepper

Dice the roasted red pepper into small pieces.

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Spoon a generous amount of creamed spinach onto each oyster, and top them with crumbled bacon, diced roasted red pepper, and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese.

Place the oysters on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Remove the oysters from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm and garnish with additional parmesan cheese if desired.
