Oysters Outback is a twist on the classic Rockefeller recipe, named after the famous Rockefellers who used to indulge in this dish back in the day. The Outback version includes bush tomatoes, a native Australian fruit that is commonly used as a spice in local cuisine. When combined with the salty and slightly sweet oysters, bush tomatoes add a tangy and savory flavor that is truly irresistible. This dish is perfect for a romantic date night or a special occasion when you want to impress your guests with a sophisticated yet easy-to-prepare recipe. Serve the oysters with a glass of champagne or a chilled white wine to complete the experience.

Instructions

1.	Preheat the oven to 400°F.
2.	Scrub the oysters, and open each one, trying to keep the oyster liquor in the half-shell.
3.	Arrange the oysters in a baking dish, making sure they are level.
4.	Sprinkle half a teaspoon of bush tomatoes, a pinch of kosher salt, and a little cheddar cheese over each oyster.
5.	Bake the oysters for about 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the oysters are hot.
6.	Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley, lemon wedges, and additional grated cheddar cheese if desired.
