Oysters Rockefeller Ingredients

Method

Oysters Rockefeller Directions

1

Prepare the Oysters

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the oysters on a baking sheet, and carefully open them, reserving the shells.

2

Sauté the Base

In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced shallots and garlic, and sauté until softened, about 2-3 minutes.

3

Add Spinach and Pernod

Stir in the chopped spinach and cook until wilted. Add the Pernod and cook for another minute. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

4

Make the Bechamel Sauce

In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream over low heat. Gradually whisk in the Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Combine with the spinach mixture.

5

Assemble the Oysters

Spoon the spinach and bechamel mixture generously onto each oyster in their shells. Top with breadcrumbs.

6

Bake

Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and bubbling.

7

Serve

Remove from oven, allow to cool slightly, and serve warm with lemon wedges on the side.
