Steps:
- To make bacon chips: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut bacon strips into 4 to 5 diamonds each (10 to 12 total); place on a sheet pan, then place another sheet pan directly on top. Bake until brown and crisp, about 10 minutes. Place pieces on a paper towel; pat with another paper towel to dry.
- To make the spinach and watercress garnish: Heat 1/4 pound of butter in a saucepan or deep skillet over medium-high heat until browning and foamy. Add the spinach, watercress and garlic; season well with salt and pepper. Cook just until greens are wilted, about 4 minutes. Let cool, then drain off butter, remove garlic, finely chop and return to pot.
- To make the beurre fondue: Cut remaining butter into 1-inch cubes. Heat 2 tablespoons water in a small saucepan until simmering; reduce heat and whisk in butter pieces, one by one, whisking constantly until mixture is smooth and thickened. Turn off the heat, add the lemon slices and steep for about 5 minutes. Season with salt to taste.
- To assemble: Heat beurre fondue to simmering. Warm the spinach mixture and place in 3 neat piles on 4 plates or 5 neat piles on 2 plates. Poach oysters in simmering beurre fondue just until they are warm and the edges begin to curl slightly, about 10 seconds. Place an oyster on each pile of greens. Pour a bit of beurre fondue over each oyster. Top each with a bacon chip. Finely grate licorice root on top and serve.
