How to Make Chargrilled Oysters
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Clean oysters thoroughly and ensure they are tightly closed. Discard any that are open and do not close when tapped.
- Place oysters, shell side down, directly on the hot grill grates. (For gas grills, ensure even heat distribution).
- In a small bowl, melt 4 tablespoons of butter. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley, and 1/2 teaspoon of dried oregano. Stir to combine.
- Grill oysters for 3-5 minutes, or until edges curl and the oyster liquor begins to bubble.
- Spoon the garlic herb butter generously over each oyster. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese.
- Continue grilling for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from grill, drizzle with fresh lemon juice (about 1 tablespoon per oyster), and serve immediately. Garnish with extra parsley if desired.
