Oysters Rockefeller Ingredients

Method

Oysters Rockefeller Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oysters

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Shuck the oysters and place them on a baking sheet, making sure they remain on their half shells.

  2. 2

    Cook the Spinach

    In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Then add the fresh spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat.

  3. 3

    Mix the Filling

    In a bowl, combine the cooked spinach, cream cheese, Pernod, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Oysters

    Spoon the spinach and cream cheese mixture generously over each oyster.

  5. 5

    Top with Parmesan

    Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top of each oyster.

  6. 6

    Bake the Oysters

    Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Oysters Rockefeller warm.
