Oyster Stuffing 2
Ingredients
2 sleeves soda crackers, crushed
4 dozen oysters, shucked, juices reserved
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 sticks (16 tablespoons) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for greasing
3 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1 teaspoon paprika
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with butter, and set aside.
Sprinkle a layer of crushed soda crackers on the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Arrange a layer of oysters, along with their juices, on top of the crackers. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and dot with a few pats of butter.
Repeat, beginning with another layer of crackers. Top with a final layer of soda crackers and then pour the cream over everything. Sprinkle with the Parmesan and paprika.
Bake until golden brown and bubbly, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
