Oyster Casino
36 oysters, freshly opened
3 slices bacon
1/2 cup green onion, minced
1/4 cup green pepper, minced
1/4 cup celery, minced
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 drops Tabasco sauce
Preheat oven to 400° F. Place two drained oysters on the deep half of one
shell. Arrange filled oyster shells on a layer of rock salt in one large baking
pan or six individual shallow casseroles. In a skillet cook the bacon until
crisp, remove from pan, drain and crumble. To the bacon fat add the onion, green
pepper and celery and cook until almost tender. Season with lemon juice,
Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco. Spoon the mixture on the oysters in the shells
and top with the crumbled bacon. Bake 10 minutes
Every dawn, each of us is offered, again, the freedom of
choice... While life remains, there is always the opportunity to remake the
world.
