- 6 big shell-on oysters
- 3 cloves garlic finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley leaves
- paprika to taste
- 2 tablespoons salted butter melted
- lemon wedges optional
Shuck the oysters and set aside.
Top the oysters with the chopped garlic, parsley leaves, and season with paprika (to taste). Add some melted butter in each oyster.
Grill on outdoor grill for about 5-8 minutes or until they are cooked. Serve immediately. You can add a squirt of lemon juice before eating.
The secret trick about shucking oysters is to have the "flatter" side of the oyster facing you, then start at the hinge of the oyster (the pointed end of the oyster). Insert an oyster knife or a small knife at the hinge, twist the knife a few times and pop the shell open. You can check out this video by Ming Tsai on how to shuck oysters.
If you bake these oysters, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 15-20 minutes.
