Classic Rockefeller-Style Oysters

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet and cook over medium-high heat until evenly browned. Drain, crumble, and set aside.

2. 2

   Clean the oysters and place them in a large stockpot. Add enough water to cover the oysters; bring the water and oysters to a boil. Remove from heat, drain, and cool the oysters. Once cooled, remove the top shell from each oyster.

3. 3

   In a food processor, chop the bacon, spinach, bread crumbs, green onions, and parsley. Add the salt, hot sauce, olive oil, and anise-flavored liqueur, then process until finely chopped but not pureed, about 10 seconds.

4. 4

   Arrange the oysters in their half shells on a pan lined with kosher salt. Spoon some of the spinach mixture onto each oyster. Bake for 10 minutes until cooked through, then switch the oven to broil and broil until browned on top. Serve hot.
