For the Chicken Fried Oysters

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broth

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine coconut milk, vegetable broth, bruised lemongrass, sliced ginger, lime juice, and fish sauce. Bring to a gentle simmer for about 15 minutes to infuse the flavors. Strain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Oysters

    In a bowl, mix gluten-free flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. In another bowl, whisk the eggs with buttermilk. Dip each oyster first into the egg mixture, then coat with the flour mixture.

  3. 3

    Fry the Oysters

    Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the coated oysters in batches for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    In bowls, ladle the coconut-lemongrass broth. Top with the fried oysters, and garnish with crushed peanuts, fresh herbs, sliced avocado, red onion, and Fresno chili.
