Oysters

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oysters

    Rinse the fresh oysters under cold water to remove any sand or debris. Use a shucking knife to carefully open each oyster, discarding the top shell and keeping the bottom shell intact with the oyster inside.

  2. 2

    Season the Oysters

    Once all the oysters are shucked, squeeze fresh lemon juice over each oyster. Sprinkle salt and black pepper on top to enhance the flavor.

  3. 3

    Prepare Garlic Butter Mixture

    In a small saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic (from the 3 cloves) and sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in chopped fresh parsley.

  4. 4

    Prepare Topping

    In a bowl, mix breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese together. Pour the garlic butter mixture over the breadcrumb mixture and stir until well combined.

  5. 5

    Assemble Oysters

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the shucked oysters on a baking sheet. Spoon a portion of the breadcrumb mixture over each oyster.

  6. 6

    Bake Oysters

    Bake the oysters in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and crispy.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove the oysters from the oven and let them cool for a minute. Serve hot with additional lemon wedges and hot sauce on the side.
