Oysters Kilpatrick
A classic Australian grilled oyster dish featuring crispy bacon, a savory Worcestershire sauce glaze, and melted cheese.
🧂 Ingrédients
- 12 Fresh oysters
- 4 slices Bacon
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 50g Cheese
- 30g Butter
- to taste Salt and freshly ground black pepper
👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
Preheat your grill or broiler to high heat. If using a grill, ensure the grates are clean. If using a broiler, position the oven rack about 15 cm (6 inches) from the heat source.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 2
Carefully shuck the oysters, ensuring they remain in their bottom shells. Discard the top shells and any loose oyster liquor. Arrange the oysters on a sturdy baking sheet or directly on the grill rack, keeping them as level as possible to retain their juices.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 3
Finely dice the bacon. In a small frying pan over medium heat, cook the bacon until it is golden brown and just beginning to crisp. Do not overcook it to the point of being brittle. Drain the bacon on paper towels to remove excess grease.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 4
Spoon a small amount of softened butter onto each oyster. Then, evenly distribute the crispy diced bacon over the butter. Drizzle about 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce over the bacon and butter on each oyster. If desired, add a tiny pinch of salt and a grind of black pepper.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Generously sprinkle the grated cheese over the top of each prepared oyster. Place the baking sheet under the preheated grill or on the hot grill. Grill for 5-8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown, and the oysters are just cooked through. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
⏱️ 8 minutes - 6
Carefully remove the oysters from the grill or broiler. Serve immediately while hot and the cheese is gooey.
