Ingredients for Angels On Horseback

  • Dry White Wine
  • Garlic Clove
  • Salt And Pepper
  • 1 dozen large oysters
  • Lean Bacon

How to Make Angels On Horseback

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup dry white wine, 1 clove minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Add 1 dozen large oysters to the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated. Marinate for 10-20 minutes.
  3. Preheat your broiler to high heat.
  4. Cut each bacon slice in half. Wrap one half-slice of bacon around each oyster, securing it with a toothpick.
  5. Place the bacon-wrapped oysters on a broiler pan or baking sheet. Broil for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the bacon is crisp and the oysters are heated through. Watch closely to prevent burning.
  6. Serve immediately. Keep warm on a low heat warming tray if needed.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
