Grilled Oyster Ingredients

Method

Grilled Oyster Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they are caramelized and golden brown, about 15-20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Oysters

    Shuck the fresh oysters and place them on a tray. Spoon a small amount of the caramelized onions onto each oyster.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese

    Top each oyster with a generous sprinkle of grated Gruyère cheese.

  5. 5

    Grill the Oysters

    Place the oysters on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the oysters from the grill, serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.
