Oysters Rockefeller

Makes: 6  servings Prep 30 mins Bake 475°F 8 mins

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds  fresh spinach, stems removed
  • 1/3 cup  butter (no substitutions), melted and divided
  • 1 tablespoon  lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon  anise-flavored liqueur
  • 1/4 teaspoon  salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon  ground red pepper
  • 2 ounces  shucked oysters on half shells
  • 1/3 cup  plain dry bread crumbs
  • 4 slices bacon, cooked

Directions

1. Heat oven to 475 degree F. Wash spinach thoroughly and drain. Place spinach in a large skillet; cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until wilted, about 3 minutes. Drain. When cool enough to handle, squeeze dry and chop coarsely. Combine spinach, 4 tablespoons of the butter, lemon juice, liqueur, salt, and red pepper in medium bowl.

2. Place oysters in half shells on 2 jelly-roll pans. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the spinach mixture on each oyster. Combine bread crumbs and remaining butter in small bowl. Sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon of the crumb mixture evenly on each oyster. Top each with a little crumbled bacon. Bake 8 minutes or until oyster is cooked. Makes 6 appetizer servings.
