Another yummy oyster entree. Sometimes we have a dozen oysters each with a tossed salad and bottle of white wine. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter |
1 cup fresh white breadcrumbs, made from 3 slices of french or italian bread |
1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic |
2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley |
2 dozen fresh oysters, well drained |
3 tablespoons freshly grated parmesan cheese |
2 tablespoons butter, cut in tiny pieces |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350oF/180oC. Generously butter an ovenproof baking dish large enough to hold oysters in one layer.
2. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a 6 to 8-inch skillet. When foam subsides, add breadcrumbs and garlic; toss in butter until crisp and golden. Remove from heat; stir in parsley. (Can be prepared ahead) Spread 2/3 cups of breadcrumb mixture in bottom of baking dish and top with oysters.
3. Mix remaining breadcrumbs with parmesan cheese and spread over oysters; top with butter pieces. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crumbs are golden and juices are bubbling.
4. Serve immediately.
