Preparation Instructions
Prepare the Oysters
In a mixing bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Dredge each oyster in the buttermilk, then coat it in the flour mixture.
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.
Fry the Oysters
Fry the oysters in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Prepare the Artichoke and Tomato Mix
In a separate bowl, mix the chopped artichoke hearts, smoked tomatoes, and fresh parsley.
Assemble the Dish
On a serving plate, arrange the fried oysters and top with the artichoke and smoked tomato mixture. Serve with lemon wedges.
