Oysters Rockefeller is a classic, elegant and timeless appetizer from New Orleans. I love the flavor but wanted to try it in another of my favorite appetizers: egg rolls. I think the combination is a winner. —Renee Murby, Johnston, Rhode Island

Ingredients
6 bacon strips, chopped
2 cans (8 ounces) whole oysters, drained and patted dry
In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium-high heat, stirring often, until crisp, about 5 minutes; drain, reserving drippings in skillet. Place flour in a shallow dish. Sprinkle oysters with salt and cayenne pepper; toss in flour. Cook in reserved drippings until golden brown, 3-4 minutes; drain.
Wipe out skillet. In same skillet, cook shallot, garlic and parsley in canola oil over medium heat until shallot is tender, 2-3 minutes. Add spinach and lemon zest; cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, 2-3 minutes. Transfer spinach mixture to a bowl; stir in oysters and bacon.
In a small bowl, whisk egg and 1 teaspoon water. Brush edges of an egg roll wrapper. Place ¼ cup oyster mixture in the center; fold bottom corner over filling. Fold sides over filling toward center; roll up tightly to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
In an electric skillet, heat ½ in. of canola oil to 375°. Fry egg rolls until golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels. If desired, serve with cocktail sauce and lemon wedges.
