Ingredients Directions

Ingredients

16 oysters, shucked

1/2 cup unsalted butter

1 jalapeno, seeded and finely minced

1/2 lime, zest, juice

1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

1 tbsp honey

1/3 cup butter

4 tbsp finely shredded Parmesan (optional)

Jalapeno, sliced, for garnish

Lime, sliced, to serve

Directions

Place the butter, jalapeno, lime juice, lime zest, cilantro and honey in a food processor. Blend until smooth and well combined. Heat a charcoal or gas grill to high heat. Add a small spoonful of butter and equal amounts of the cheese to each oyster. Place on grill, close the lid, and cook just until the cheese melts, about a minute. For those that prefer more cooked oysters, cook an additional 3 to 5 minutes.

*For those that prefer not to brave the cold, place oysters on a baking sheet and set in an oven set for 450 °F. After the cheese is melted, remove from oven and serve.
