NOT YA MAMA'S OYSTER DRESSING



Not Ya Mama's Oyster Dressing image

Thirty-five years ago, a group of friends went to a little Italian restaurant south of New Orleans. We all fell in love with their oyster dressing. We ate it so often the guys made a bet to see who could duplicate the recipe. After many tries, one of our friends figured it out and won the bet. During this time I was pregnant with my son and I craved oysters any way but raw. My husband made this for me at least twice a week (35-year-old son came into this world loving oysters). Last year I found the original restaurant recipe in a New Orleans cookbook; our friend hit the nail on the head. This is his version.

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
10 sea scallops
10 medium shrimps, peeled and deveined
12 oz shredded crab meat, drained
4 cups low sodium chicken stock
2 large eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning

  • Grease the dish used to bake the cornbread with more nonstick spray, then spread the stuffing in the dish in an even layer. Sprinkle the top with the remaining teaspoon of fresh thyme.

Tips:

  • Before preparing the oyster dressing, it is essential to properly clean the oysters by scrubbing their shells and removing any dirt or debris. Additionally, it is recommended to brine the oysters for at least 30 minutes to enhance their flavor and texture.
  • To achieve a flavorful dressing, use a combination of stale bread and cornbread. This mixture adds a unique texture and absorbs the delicious oyster juices.
  • Incorporate a variety of seasonings, such as thyme, sage, rosemary, and garlic powder, to elevate the dressing's taste profile. These herbs and spices complement the briny oysters perfectly.
  • For a crispy topping, consider adding a layer of crushed crackers or seasoned bread crumbs before baking the dressing. This step adds an appealing texture and golden-brown color.
  • Allow the dressing to rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together and the dressing to set properly.
