Oysters and Toppings

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tequila Lime Butter

    In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, add the tequila, lime juice, and jalapenos. Stir until well combined and heated through. Season with salt to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Cilantro Lime Pearls

    In a small bowl, mix the chopped cilantro with lime zest. Set aside for topping the oysters.

  3. 3

    Grill the Oysters

    Preheat a grill to medium-high heat. Place the oysters on the grill, cup side down. Spoon the tequila lime butter mixture generously over each oyster. Close the grill lid and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the oysters are cooked and the edges start to curl.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Using tongs, carefully remove the oysters from the grill. Top each oyster with the cilantro lime pearls and serve immediately.
