Bacon-Wrapped Oysters

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.

  1. Cut the bacon into strips about 1 inch wide and 3 inches long.

  2. Roll each strip of bacon and thread it onto a skewer, alternating with an oyster.

  3. Repeat until the skewer is full.

  4. Place the skewers on a baking sheet and cook in a 400°F (200°C) oven for about 10 minutes.

  5. Transfer the bacon and oysters from the skewers to a hot dish and serve immediately.
