Simply delicious! A very unique combination of flavors for this oven char-grilled oyster recipe. It's so good, I get rave reviews every time I make them. People can't get enough of them. Great as an appetizer or the main course. Serving them on a bed of rock salt makes for a nice presentation.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

18 fresh oysters in shells
1 cup butter, softened
1 ½ tablespoons sriracha sauce
1 ½ tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon chopped green onions
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place oysters in a baking pan, flat-side up.
  • Stir butter, sriracha sauce, garlic, green onions, cilantro, and lime juice together in a bowl.
  • Bake oysters in the preheated oven until they open slightly, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove the top shell of the oysters using a towel and an oyster knife, being careful not to spill the liquor. Gently cut the muscles that attach the oysters to the shell.
  • Divide the butter mixture among the oysters, placing a dollop on each. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top.
  • Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Broil oysters in the preheated oven until butter melts and Parmesan cheese is golden brown, about 5 minutes.
