Oysters and Mignonette

Method

Preparation and Serving

1

Prepare the Mignonette

In a bowl, combine finely chopped shallots, red wine vinegar, black pepper, cucumber, carrot, and celery. Mix well and let it sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

2

Grill the Lemon

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Cut the lemon in half and place it cut-side down on the grill. Grill for about 3-5 minutes until you see grill marks and the lemon softens. Remove from the grill.

3

Shuck the Oysters

Carefully shuck the oysters, discarding the top shell. Place the oysters on a serving platter with the deeper shell side down to retain the juices.

4

Serve

Spoon a small amount of the jardiniere mignonette over each oyster. Serve with the grilled lemon halves on the side for squeezing over the oysters.
