Time 20m

Yield 1 omelet, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large fresh oysters or 6 medium fresh oysters
salt and pepper
1/2 cup dried breadcrumbs, fine
1 slice bacon
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
3 eggs, lightly beaten with salt and pepper
rosemary sprig (to garnish)
1 tablespoon Tabasco sauce

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the oyster with salt and pepper. Dredge in bread crumbs. Set aside.
  • In a six-inch omelet pan or cast-iron skillet, fry the bacon until lightly crisped. Drain on paper toweling.
  • Pour off the fat in the pan and add butter. Fry the oysters until lightly browned. Reduce heat and add eggs.
  • Let the eggs set and then lift up edges of the omelet, so that egg liquid can run underneath and cook.
  • When it is totally set, lay the bacon over the top.
  • Ease out onto a plate; flip back into pan bacon-side down. Finish cooking.
  • Garnish with herb sprigs and serve with Tabasco.
