Ingredients

  • 4 strips bacon
  • 1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup roughly chopped shallots
  • 1/4 cup roughly chopped red bell pepper
  • 1/4 cup roughly chopped celery
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 2 sprigs fresh oregano, leaves picked
  • Pinch cayenne pepper
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 24 medium-sized (approximately 4 inches) West coast oysters on the half shell
  • 1/4 bunch flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped for garnish

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Lay bacon out on a roasting pan in a single layer and bake for 10 minutes until just crispy - remember they will be going back into the oven with the oysters so you don't want to finish the bacon just yet. While the bacon is cooking, put the butter, garlic, shallots, bell pepper, celery, lemon juice, oregano, and cayenne pepper in a food processor; pulse until well combined, but still has texture. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Remove bacon from oven and cut each slice into 6 so you have a total 24 pieces. Lay oysters in their half shells out on a large roasting pan in a single layer. Place 1 tablespoon of the casino butter mixture on top of each oyster and place a piece of bacon on each. Bake oysters in the hot oven until bubbly, approximately 10 to 12 minutes. Finish with finely chopped, fresh flat-leaf parsley and serve.

    I've had Oysters Casino before in a restuarant some where and they didn't really impress me that much. This recipe was different and really good.

    These oysters were amazing. We drove straight to the Hog Island Farm and back home to start shucking. Fresh, fresh, fresh oysters. This was fast, easy and delicious. Big crowd pleaser. Tyler nailed it again.
