How to Make Oysters With Pine Nuts And Bacon

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. Cook 4 slices of bacon in a small heavy-based pan over medium heat until browned and crispy. Remove bacon and set aside, reserving 1 tablespoon of bacon fat in the pan.
  3. Add 1/4 cup pine nuts to the pan with the bacon fat and toast for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until lightly golden brown.
  4. Stir in 2 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce and 1 tablespoon of butter. Simmer for 1 minute, until the sauce slightly thickens.
  5. Crumble the cooked bacon into the sauce.
  6. Shuck 1 dozen fresh oysters, reserving the liquor. Carefully arrange oysters on an oven-safe dish.
  7. Spoon the bacon and pine nut mixture evenly over the oysters.
  8. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of finely chopped chives.
  9. Bake for 5-10 minutes, or until the oysters are heated through and the edges begin to curl slightly. Do not overcook!
  10. Serve immediately. Garnish with extra chives if desired.
