Reserve in a very warm place or a double boiler at just under simmering.

Preheat a large - 12-inch or larger- saute pan, or 2 smaller saute pans over medium-high heat.
Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter.
Add fish and cook until flakey, about 4 minutes per side.
Meanwhile, set another pan over medium-high heat and saute shiitakes in remaining olve oil for about 3 minutes, stirring often.
Add tasso and spinach and saute until spinach wilts, about 2 minutes, stirring often.
Add remaining oysters and cook just until edges curl, about 3 minutes.
Remove from heat and keep warm until ready to serve.
