Number Of Ingredients 10

20 oysters in shells
1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 8-ounce bottle clam juice
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup fine dry Italian bread crumbs
2 tablespoons margarine, melted
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon snipped cilantro or parsley
1 tablespoon margarine

Steps:

  • Thoroughly clean, by scrubbing the shells with a scrub brush under cold running water. Using an oyster knife, insert the tip between shells, twisting to pry open. With blade, separate the top shell and muscle. Remove and discard the top shell. Slide knife under oyster to sever the muscle from the bottom shell. Rinse oyster, discarding any bits of shell. Place oysters in rinsed and dried bottom shell halves.
  • For sauce, in a small saucepan cook onion in the 1 tablespoon hot margarine till tender. Stir in flour. Add clam juice. Cook and stir till thickened and bubbly. Remove from heat. Stir in the 2 tablespoons cheese. Combine bread crumbs, the 1/4 cup cheese, the 2 tablespoons melted margarine, cilantro, and dash bottled hot pepper sauce.
  • Spoon a scant tablespoon of the sauce over each oyster; sprinkle 1 teaspoon of the crumb mixture atop. Line a shallow pan with rock salt to a depth of 1/2-inch. (Or, use crumbled foil to keep shells from tipping.) Arrange oysters atop salt or crumbled foil.
  • Bake in a 450 degree oven about 10 minutes or till heated through.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I will try using a lighter sauce.
