How to Make Oven Fried Oysters

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Drain oysters thoroughly and pat completely dry with paper towels.
  3. Melt 1/4 cup margarine in a large baking pan, ensuring it's large enough to hold the oysters in a single layer.
  4. In a shallow dish, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon paprika.
  5. In a separate shallow dish, whisk 2 large eggs.
  6. Dip each oyster into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
  7. Dredge the egg-coated oysters in the flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating.
  8. Arrange the breaded oysters in a single layer in the melted margarine, gently turning to coat both sides.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the oysters are golden brown and cooked through. Internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
