Serrano Ham Wrapped Oysters With Chipotle Mayonnaise Recipe - Cooking Index
| 1 | Egg yolk | |
| 1 | Garlic clove | |
| 1 | Lemon - juiced | |
| 1 | Chipotle pepper in adobo | |
| 1 cup | 237ml | Extra-virgin olive oil - plus |
| More for searing | ||
| Salt - to taste | ||
| Freshly-ground black pepper - to taste | ||
| 1/2 cup | 31g / 1.1oz | Flour |
| 1 teaspoon | 5ml | Ground chile d' arbol powder |
| 6 | Oysters - shucked, bottom | |
| Shell washed, dried, and reserved | ||
| 1/2 lb | 227g / 8oz | Very very thinly-sliced serrano ham |
In a food processor, add the egg yolk, garlic, lemon juice, and chipotle pepper. Puree the ingredients, and with the machine running, slowly add the olive oil, until the mixture is fully emulsified. Season the mayonnaise with salt and pepper, and set aside, refrigerated, until ready to use.
In a bowl, combine the flour, chile powder, salt, and pepper.
Dredge each oyster in the seasoned flour, and then wrap the oyster in a piece of serrano ham, covering the oyster completely. Repeat until all 6 oysters are dredged and wrapped.
In a saute pan over medium-high heat, heat a little olive oil. When the oil is smoking, sear the wrapped oysters, turning to crisp up the ham on all sides, about 4 minutes per side.
Place the crisped oysters back into the bottom halves of the oyster shells and place a dollop of the chipotle mayonnaise on each.
This recipe yields 6 hors d'oeuvre servings.
