Categories     appetizer

Time 25m

Yield 6 first course servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced shallots
1 tablespoon minced parsley leaves, plus more for garnishing
1 pint shucked raw oysters, drained well and patted dry on paper towels
1 pint shucked raw oysters, drained well and patted dry on paper towels
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1/4 pound crabmeat, picked over for shells and cartilage
1/2 lemon, juiced, plus lemon wedges, for serving
1/4 cup fine dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons finely grated Parmesan, plus 2 tablespoons, for garnish
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • In a small bowl combine the butter with the garlic, shallots, and 1 tablespoon of the parsley. Stir to blend thoroughly, and then transfer to the refrigerator while you prepare the oysters.
  • Set the oven to the broil setting or preheated to 500 degrees F. Position the top oven rack in the upper third of the oven.
  • Season the oysters with salt and pepper. Divide the oysters evenly between 6 individual gratin dishes just large enough to hold the oysters in 1 layer. Shallow gratin dishes approximately 4 by 6 by 1-inch that have a volume capacity of about 8 ounces work well. Sprinkle the crabmeat evenly over the oysters in the ramekins. Using a small spoon, place dabs of the compound butter over the tops of the dishes, dividing the entire amount of butter evenly among the 6 dishes. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top. In a small bowl combine the bread crumbs, grated cheese and olive oil. Sprinkle evenly over the oysters and transfer the gratin dishes to a large baking sheet and place in the oven. Broil until the crumbs are golden brown and the oysters are just cooked through and curled around the edges.
  • While the oysters are baking, in a small bowl combine the bread crumbs, 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan, and the olive oil. Stir until thoroughly combined.
  • Remove the oysters from the oven and sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly over the tops of the oysters in the dishes. Return to the oven and bake until the crumbs are golden brown and the oysters are just cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes longer.
  • Remove the oysters from the oven, garnish with the remaining Parmesan and parsley, and serve immediately, with lemon wedges for guests to use according to taste.

OYSTERS ROCKEFELLER



Oysters Rockefeller image

A classic appetizer from New Orleans, the original oysters Rockefeller recipe is a closely guarded secret. But these are certainly a delicious version!

Provided by Caroline's Cooking

Categories     Appetizer/Starter

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 oysters
1 cup spinach (40g)
1/2 cup watercress (11g, or use arugula/rocket)
1 scallion/spring onion
1/2 clove garlic ((small))
1/2 tbsp butter (8g)
1 tbsp pernod
1 tsp lemon juice
1/8 tsp hot sauce
1 tbsp parmesan (finely grated)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450F/230C. Lightly scrunch a piece of foil and put it in a baking dish big enough to hold all of your oysters so it covers the dish.
  • First, shuck the oysters and loosen the meat from the shell. Pour off the liquid, setting it aside. Place the oysters on the foil in the baking dish so they are sitting flat.
  • Roughly chop the spinach, watercress or arugula/rocket and thinly slice the scallion/spring onion. Finely chop the garlic.
  • Melt the butter in a small skillet/frying pan. Add the spinach, watercress/arugula, scallion and garlic. Cook, stirring for a couple minutes so everything softens and the liquid largely evaporates.
  • Add the pernod, lemon juice and hot sauce. Stir through and cook a minute more so the liquid evaporates then remove from the heat.
  • Spoon a heaped teaspoon over each oyster then top with a little parmesan.
  • Bake for approx 8-12 mins until the top is lightly browned.
