Rockin Oysters Rockefeller

Seafood

Oysters Rockefeller is a rich seafood appetizer. This recipe adds three types of cheese to the creamy sauce for an even more decadent version of the classic.

Ingredients

48 fresh, unopened oysters
1 ½ cups beer
2 cloves garlic
7 black peppercorns
seasoned salt to taste
½ cup butter
1 onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
8 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
8 ounces fontina cheese, shredded
8 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
½ cup milk
2 teaspoons salt, or to taste
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons fine bread crumbs

Description

Clean oysters, and place them in a large stockpot. Pour in beer and enough water to cover oysters; add 2 cloves of garlic, peppercorns, and seasoned salt. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat, drain, and cool.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C.)
Once oysters are cooled, break off and discard the top shell. Arrange oysters on a baking sheet.
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook onion and garlic in butter until soft. Reduce heat to low; stir in spinach, Monterey Jack, fontina, and mozzarella. Cook until cheese melts, stirring frequently. Stir in milk; season with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce over each oyster, just filling the shell. Sprinkle with bread crumbs.
Bake in the preheated oven until golden and bubbly, approximately 8 to 10 minutes.
