Ingredients

  • 0.1 teaspoon pepper black freshly ground
  • 0.3 cup vermouth dry
  • 0.5 cup hazelnuts toasted chopped
  • cups leeks thinly sliced
  • tablespoons olive oil 
  • 24 medium oysters in the shell 
  • tablespoons parsley finely chopped
  • 0.3 teaspoon salt 

Equipment

  • frying pan
  • baking sheet
  • oven
  • aluminum foil

Directions

  1. Cut a piece of foil twice as long as a large baking sheet. Loosely crumple the foil, and use it to line the baking sheet. Set aside.
  2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add leeks; cook 4 minutes or until they begin to soften, stirring constantly. Cover, reduce heat to medium, and cook 8 minutes or until leeks are tender, stirring occasionally.
  4. Remove pan from heat, and stir in hazelnuts and next 4 ingredients.
  5. Scrub oyster shells. Shuck oysters, discarding tops. Arrange bottoms on crumpled foil (to keep oysters from tipping over). Top oysters evenly with leek mixture.
  6. Bake at 475, in batches, 6 minutes or until oysters plump and edges bubble. Carefully arrange on a platter, and serve immediately.
