Grilled Oysters Recipe

Grilled Oysters

1. 1

   Prepare the Oysters

   Rinse the fresh oysters under cold running water to remove any dirt or debris. Use a brush if necessary. Set them aside in a bowl.

2. 2

   Make the Garlic Butter

   In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Add minced garlic cloves and sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant but not browned. Remove from heat.

3. 3

   Add Herbs and Seasoning

   To the melted garlic butter, add chopped fresh parsley, fresh lemon juice, salt, black pepper, paprika, and hot sauce. Mix well to combine all ingredients.

4. 4

   Preheat the Grill

   Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C). Ensure the grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.

5. 5

   Grill the Oysters

   Place the oysters on the grill, cup side down. Spoon the garlic butter mixture generously over each oyster. Grill for about 5-7 minutes or until the oysters open and the edges begin to curl.

6. 6

   Serve

   Using tongs, carefully remove the oysters from the grill. Serve immediately with lemon wedges and additional hot sauce if desired.
