You can find variations on the traditional oyster pan roast: here a trumpet mushroom, there a dash of nutmeg, there again an artichoke heart. Yet no version so soothes the soul as this one based on New York City's Oyster Bar and Restaurant recipe.
Ingredients
½ cup clam broth or juice
1 tablespoon butter
¼ teaspoon celery salt
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
10 shucked oysters with juice
2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce, such as Heinz
1 cup half-and-half
1 cup whole milk
2 slices toasted white bread
1 teaspoon sweet Hungarian paprika
1/2 cup oyster crackers
Instructions
1. In a double boiler with water boiling on high, combine clam juice, butter, celery salt and Worcestershire sauce. Once butter melts, add oysters and cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Add chili sauce and stir well.
2. Add half-and-half and milk and cook for a few minutes until heated through, but not boiling.
3. Place a slice of white toast in a warm 9-inch soup plate. Using a slotted spoon, place oysters over toast. Pour hot liquid over oysters, filling to about ¼-inch beneath the rim. Garnish with a paprika. Serve with oyster crackers. Serves 2.
