3
ingredients
- 1 dozen oyster (on the half shell, freshly shucked)
- 2 slices bacon, chopped
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1⁄4 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
- 1⁄4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 -2 garlic clove, crushed
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
- salt and pepper
directions
- Preheat oven to high, about 400-450.
- Over medium heat cook chopped bacon and garlic until lightly done (not crispy). Remove pan from heat, drain off most of the fat and stir in breadcrumbs, parsley and seasoning.
- Place oysters on a rack over a cookie sheet (this will keep them steady, or you can crumple tin foil on a sheet and "settle" the oyster shells into it) ensuring that they are as flat as possible.
- With a fork, add cheese to crumb mix.
- Sprinkle crumb mix over oysters (resist the urge to pat it down), and continue sprinkling until all oysters are covered lightly.
- Depending on the size of your oysters you may have some crumb mix left over. Discard.
- Bake for 12-18 minutes, until golden.
- Serve piping hot.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
Originally from New Orleans; are we food obsessed or what?? Sent to boarding school at a very young age where our major gripe was the food, of course. I swore never to eat stuff I did not like ever again. Life is too short for that nonsense. Its easier to list dislikes than likes/loves, so:
Curry (every poverty stricken third world country reeks of curry, yuk!)
Eggplant anything (I don't care how fancy you disguise aubergine, its still slimy eggplant).
Pumpkin anything (I hear its good food for pigs...give 'em my share).
Brussel sprouts (who in hell decided these were fit for human consumption?)
