Oyster Wild Rice Casserole



Ingredients:
xvi oz shucked oysters, drained, liquor reserved
ii slices cooked thick cutting bacon, crumbed
1/4 loving cup butter
1 large shallot, minced
1 cubanelle pepper, diced
1 cayenne pepper, minced
ii tablespoons flour
12 oz evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups cooked wild rice
1/3 loving cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1/3 loving cup defrosted frozen spinach (squeezed dried together with packed tightly)
pinch nutmeg
salt
freshly dry reason dark pepper
1/2 loving cup breadstuff crumbs



Directions.

Grease a  1 1/2 quart casserole. Melt ii tablespoons of butter inwards a skillet. Saute the shallot together with peppers until fragrant. Add the oysters together with saute for v minutes. Melt the remaining butter inwards a small-scale pot. Whisk inwards the flour. Add the evaporated milk together with a few tablespoons of the oyster liquor. Whisk until the milk is close boiling together with the mixture thickens. Stir inwards the cheese. After the cheese melts, stir inwards the bacon, rice, spices together with spinach. Stir inwards the oyster/pepper mixture. Pour the mixture into the prepared dish. Sprinkle amongst breadstuff crumbs. Broil or bake at 350 until bubbly together with browned.




Tips: Cook the bacon together with brand the rice the dark before. While I similar using evaporated milk because it is rattling creamy but depression inwards fat, regular milk could survive substituted.

My thoughts:
I don't bring much of a casserole background. We simply didn't swallow them (save mac together with cheese if that counts) growing up. However, I occasionally listen of 1 that intrigues me. I came across a yell of oyster casserole together with it sounded skilful but 1. seemed likewise plainly (mostly simply oysters, sauce together with cracker crumbs) or 2. included cream of whatsoever soup which I've never had together with sounds slightly gross. So I idea I'd brand 1 I'd enjoy. Adding the wild rice together with extra veg plow it from a side dish to a top dog dish that tin survive a repast on its own.
