Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spicy Char-Grilled Oysters.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a toasty 400ยฐF (200ยฐC).
Step 2
Next, take a baking pan and arrange the oysters with their flat sides facing up, creating a cozy little bed for them.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, blend together softened butter, sriracha sauce, minced garlic, chopped green onions, fresh cilantro, and a splash of lime juice.
Step 4
Stir until the mixture is a harmonious medley of flavors.
Step 5
Once your oven is ready, slide the oysters in and let them bake for about 10 minutes, just until they start to open up slightly, revealing their treasures.
Step 6
With a towel in hand and an oyster knife at the ready, carefully pry off the top shell of each oyster, being mindful not to spill the precious oyster liquor inside.
Step 7
Gently detach the muscle that holds the oyster in place.
Step 8
Generously spoon the zesty butter mixture over each oyster, ensuring they are well-coated, then sprinkle a layer of grated Parmesan cheese on top.
Step 9
Adjust your oven rack to about 6 inches from the heat source and turn on the broiler.
Step 10
Broil the oysters for approximately 5 minutes, watching closely until the butter is bubbling and the Parmesan cheese turns a delightful golden brown.
Step 11
Enjoy the tantalizing aroma and the deliciously rich flavors that await you!.
