Smoked Oysters And Bacon - cooking recipe

Ingredients

12 oysters, shucked on half shell
1 tablespoon olive oil
50 g bacon
1/4 cup mesquite wood chips

Preparation

Briefly blanch oysters by filling half-shells with water from a boiling kettle and draining after two minutes by turning upside down for a few minutes then lightly patting dry with a paper towel. They might fall out of the shell while doing this so use a clean surface.
Drizzle about a 1/4 teaspoon of olive oil over each oyster and place a few small slices of bacon in each one.
Prepare fish smoker with the woodchips and smoke oysters for 15 minutes.
