Oysters

Topping

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Oysters

    Carefully shuck the oysters and place them on a baking sheet, ensuring they are stable and not tipping over.

  3. 3

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet and let it cool, then crumble it into small pieces.

  4. 4

    Sauté Shallots and Spinach

    In the same skillet, add the olive oil and sauté the chopped shallots until they are translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute. Then add the spinach and cook until wilted. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  5. 5

    Combine the Topping

    In a mixing bowl, combine the crumbled bacon, sautéed spinach and shallots, bread crumbs, and fontina cheese. Mix well to ensure everything is evenly coated.

Baking

  1. 6

    Top the Oysters

    Spoon the topping mixture generously over each oyster.

  2. 7

    Bake

    Place the baking sheet with the topped oysters in the preheated oven. Bake for about 12-15 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the cheese has melted.

  3. 8

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your baked oysters warm!
