Prep time: 10 minutes, Cook Time: 25 minutes, Serves: 6 to 8
1/2 lb. Hot Italian Sausage
1/2 organic red pepper, finely diced
1/2 organic green pepper, finely diced
2 cloves garlic cloves
1 tsp. basil
1/2 tsp. oregano
1 c. breadcrumbs
1/4 c. Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, grated
2 dozen oysters on-the-half-shell
Preheat oven to 425° F. Heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add sausage. Break into smaller pieces and cook until browned. Drain off any excess oil and set sausage aside. Using the same pan, add a splash of olive oil, red and green peppers and garlic. Cook over medium-high heat until the peppers are soft, about 3 minutes. Stir in spices, breadcrumbs and cheese. Place oysters on a baking sheet (with sides). Mound the stuffing evenly on the oysters. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the breadcrumbs are lightly browned.
