Tips:
- Select Fresh Oysters: Choose plump and firm oysters with tightly closed shells. Check for any signs of damage or open shells, as these may indicate compromised quality.
- Properly Clean the Oysters: Before cooking, thoroughly clean the oysters by scrubbing them under cold running water. Use a stiff brush to remove any dirt or debris from the shells.
- Prep the Panko Coating: Combine panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and salt in a shallow dish. Mix well to ensure an even distribution of flavors.
- Whisk the Eggs: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until they are well-blended. This mixture will help the panko coating adhere to the oysters.
- Double-Coat the Oysters: First, dip the oysters into the egg mixture, ensuring they are fully coated. Then, roll them in the panko breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to help the coating stick.
- Fry the Oysters: Heat a pan with enough oil to cover the oysters. Once the oil is shimmering and hot, carefully add the coated oysters. Fry them for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Drain and Serve: Once the oysters are cooked, transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as lemon wedges, tartar sauce, or cocktail sauce.
