Arrange the oysters on a large baking sheet and refrigerate. In a medium skillet, cook the bacon over moderate heat until crisp, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and cut crosswise into 1-inch lengths.
Step 2
Melt the butter in a saucepan. Add the bell peppers and onion; cook over moderately high heat, stirring often, until softened, 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce (optional) and stir in the parsley. Let cool slightly, spoon over the oysters and top with the bacon.
