Report
Oysters Rockefeller are a tasty and healthy appetizer. Usually restaurant fare, you can make them at home by topping oysters with a rich spinach topping!

Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2 garlic minced, cloves
- 1/3 cup bread crumbs
- 2 shallot chopped
- 3 cups spinach 6 oz, chopped, fresh
- 1/4 cup Pernod sherry or white wine
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- red pepper sauce dash
- 1 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese finely grated
- 1 tablespoon parsley chopped
- 1 oyster on the half shell (see note, dozen
Instructions
- Melt butter in a skillet. Saute the garlic for 2 minutes to infuse the butter. Place the bread crumbs in a mixing bowl and add half the garlic butter, set aside.
- To the remaining garlic butter in the skillet, add shallots and spinach, cook for 3 minutes until the spinach wilts. Add the Pernod or sherry. Season with salt and pepper, add a dash of red pepper sauce. Allow the mixture to cook down for a few minutes to reduce the liquid.
- Finish off the bread crumbs by mixing in olive oil, Parmesan and parsley, season with salt and pepper. Spoon 1 rounded teaspoon of the spinach mixture on each oyster followed by a spoonful of the bread crumb mixture.
- Sprinkle a baking pan. Bake in a preheated 450 degree F oven for 10 to 15 minutes until golden. Serve with lemon wedges.
Notes
- The original recipe calls for spreading the topping over 2 dozen oysters. I found it hard to stretch this for 24 but I am still debating the optimal ratio.Many recipes call for baking these on salt so they sit nicely in the pan. I used split peas the first time and but going without seems to work fine for me too.
