INGREDIENTS
6 tbsp. unsalted butter
2 tbsp. finely chopped garlic
½ small baguette (about 4 oz.), cut into eight 1"-thick slices
10 slices bacon, cut into 2" pieces
3 scallions, finely chopped
¼ cup white wine
2 tsp. lemon juice, plus wedges for serving
8 oysters, such as Blue Point, shucked, with juices reserved
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 tbsp. roughly chopped parsley, for garnish
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Heat oven to 400°. Melt 4 tbsp. butter in a small pan; mix with 1 tsp. garlic. Brush baguette slices with the butter; arrange on a baking sheet. Bake until lightly toasted, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
2. Meanwhile, cook bacon in a 12" skillet over medium-high heat until crispy, about 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper towels to drain, reserving bacon fat for another use; set aside. Heat remaining butter in the skillet. Add remaining garlic and the scallions, and cook, stirring, until soft, about 3 minutes. Add wine, lemon juice, oysters with their juices, and salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until oysters begin to curl at the edges, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer oysters to a bowl; cover to keep warm. Continue to cook sauce until thickened and reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Divide oysters and sauce among baguette slices; top with reserved bacon and garnish with parsley.
