Ingredients | Serves 4-6
- 2 dozen oysters, on the half shell
- 2 small garlic cloves, finely minced
- 1 tbsp. fresh basil leaves, finely minced
- 1 tbsp. fresh parsley leaves, finely minced
- ¼ cup dry white wine
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp. hot sauce of choice
- ½ cup panko breadcrumbs

To Prepare
- In a small saucepan, add garlic and white wine. Simmer on low for about 8 minutes. Add cream, hot sauce, parsley and basil. Take off heat and reserve for the oysters on the grill.
- On a hot grill, add oysters on the half shell and spoon a nice portion of the sauce. Add a sprinkle of breadcrumbs and lemon zest. Place the lid on the grill. Cook for about 3-5 minutes, depending on the size of the oysters.
