Baked Oysters With Crabmeat Gratinee Recipe

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Carefully pick the crabmeat to remove any shells or cartilage.

Put it into a small bowl and using a rubber spatula, gently fold in 1/4 cup of the seafood sauce, being careful not to break up the lumps.

Spread 1 tablespoon of this mixture over each oyster on the half shell and top them off with 1/2 teaspoon of the seafood sauce. Grate the Parmesan on the fine side of the box grater and sprinkle it over each oyster.

Spread a layer of rock salt in the bottom of the baking dish to stabilize the oysters during baking.

Nestle the oysters into the salt; bake for 6 minutes then turn on the broiler just long enough to get a golden brown glaze. Serve at once while the oysters are piping hot.
