These rich oysters get topped with a buttery mix of white wine, shallots, and lemon before they're grilled.

ready in:
  under 30 minutes

ingredients

12 whole live oysters
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 small shallot, finely chopped
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 dash Tabasco sauce
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
1 teaspoon parsley
salt and pepper, to taste

directions

Heat olive oil in small saucepan over medium low. Saute garlic and shallot for one minute, until just fragrant. Add wine, lemon juice and Tabasco, increase heat to medium and bring mixture just to a low boil. Slowly whisk in butter, then add parsley, salt and pepper off heat.

Preheat broiler or prepare a grill to medium high heat.

Shuck oysters and place on sheet tray or broiling pan. Spoon about a tablespoon of sauce over each oyster and broil for 2 to 3 minutes, until just golden brown on top and edges start to curl slightly. Or, place oysters directly on hot grill rack, cover, and grill for 5-6 minutes until edges of oysters just start to curl. Serve hot.
