    • Yield: Makes 36 oysters 1x

    Description

    • 36 fresh oysters, shucked

    For the mignonette:

    • 1 cup red wine vinegar 
    • 1/2 teaspoon raw sugar 
    • 2-3 finely chopped shallots 
    • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley 
    • Lots of fresh cracked black pepper (6 turns of a pepper mill)

    For the butter:

    • 1 stick of butter at room temperature
    • 1/4 cup honey or agave syrup 
    • Zest of 1 orange 
    • Pinch of salt

    Ingredients

    1. In a small bowl, mix together the ingredients for the mignonette and set aside.
    2. In a separate bowl, whip the butter with the honey, orange zest, and salt. Top each shucked oyster with a generous 1/2 teaspoon of the butter mixture, then place the oysters on a hot grill and cook until the butter has melted and the oysters start bubbling, about 3 minutes.
    3. Spoon a little of the mignonette onto each cooked oyster, and serve.
