Oysters and Toppings

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oysters

    Preheat your wood grill or oven to a high temperature. If using a grill, make sure you have a bed of hot coals.

  2. 2

    Roast the Oysters

    Place the oysters on the grill or in the oven, cupped side down, and roast for about 5-7 minutes, or until the oysters are opened and the meat is cooked.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Topping

    In a small bowl, combine the mole amarillo, crumbled cotija cheese, and breadcrumbs. Add olive oil to the mixture and stir until well combined.

  4. 4

    Top the Oysters

    Carefully remove the oysters from the grill or oven. Spoon the mole amarillo mixture generously over each oyster.

  5. 5

    Finish and Serve

    Return the topped oysters to the grill for an additional 2-3 minutes to slightly toast the topping. Remove from heat, garnish with chopped cilantro, and serve with lime wedges.
