Berg's Baked Oysters Recipe

ShuckedFrom Shucked, by Erin Byers Murray....

Berg's off-the-cuff cooking methods came in handy a number of times that summer. This is his riff on the classic Rockefeller; it can be pulled together in minutes flat. Though Oysters Rockefeller might seem like the first course to some staid sit-down dinner, these are best eaten outside, on someone's deck, under the fading summertime sun - preferably near the water.

Ingredients:
2 dozen Island Creek Oysters
1 cup baby spinach, chopped
3 tbsp minced garlic
3 tbsp butter
Couple handfuls of shredded Parmesan

Preparation:
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Shuck the oysters, making sure to separate the bottom muscle but keep the meat intact in the shell.
  3. Top the meat with a couple pinches of spinach, 1/4 teaspoon garlic, a small pat of butter, and a couple of pinches of Parmesan.
  4. Arrange on a baking sheet and bake for about 5 minutes or until Parmesan is melted.
Serves 6
