Oysters

Method

Preparation of Oysters

  1. 1

    Shuck the Oysters

    Carefully shuck the oysters, removing the top shell and ensuring the oyster remains in the bottom shell. Place them in a bowl.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Rock Salt

    Spread the rock salt evenly on a baking sheet. This will serve as a bed for the oysters to sit on while baking.

Making the Topping

  1. 3

    Sauté the Aromatics

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

  2. 4

    Add Spinach

    Stir in the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 5

    Combine Other Ingredients

    Remove from heat and stir in the parsley, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, and black pepper until well combined.

Baking the Oysters

  1. 6

    Assemble the Oysters

    Place the shucked oysters on the bed of rock salt on the baking sheet. Spoon the topping generously over each oyster.

  2. 7

    Bake the Oysters

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the oysters for about 10-12 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the oysters are cooked through.

  3. 8

    Serve

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