1
Prepare the Oysters
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Carefully shuck the oysters, keeping the oyster meat in the bottom shell, and place them on a grill-safe tray or directly on the grill grates.
2
Make the Garlic Butter
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper.
3
Top the Oysters
Spoon a small amount of the garlic butter mixture over each oyster. Then sprinkle shredded Parmesan cheese on top.
4
Grill the Oysters
Place the tray with the oysters on the grill, or if grilling directly, place the oysters on the grill grates. Close the lid and grill for about 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
5
Serve
Remove the oysters from the grill, squeeze fresh lemon juice on top, and serve immediately.
