Wine-baked Oysters and Crab
Ingredients:
36 oysters in the shell
1 lb. crab meat
1/4 cup onion – finely chopped
2 Tbsp. white wine
10 oz. Swiss cheese – grated
How to:
Wash oyster thoroughly. Shuck and place oysters on deep half of shell, removing any remaining particles of shell. Arrange oysters on a baking sheet with a rock salt base to avoid tipping and set aside. Combine crab meat with remaining ingredients and mix well. Top each oyster with 1 tsp. of mixture and bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes or until edges begin to curl.
