FAQ
Start with raw oysters shucked and on the half shell. Top them with butter, garlic, lemon slices, breadcrumbs, or other accompaniments before roasting them at 450°F for 8-12 minutes until they are slightly firm. The oysters will plump up and release some delicious juices.
One of the easiest ways to open oysters is to bake them in the oven. Simply preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit and place the oysters on a baking sheet lined with slightly crumpled foil to keep them steady. Bake for about 5 minutes or until the oysters' shells have just begun to open up.
Raw oysters are often touted as being the more nutritious option, as cooking can destroy some of their vitamins and minerals. However, cooked oysters are still a great source of protein and are often easier for people to digest.
Bake the oysters until the oysters are cooked through and the topping is golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
Oven-roasting oysters just until they pop open means all the fun and romance of oysters on the half shell with no shucking knife or skills required.
