Directions
- Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high. For charcoal grills, wait until the coals are white-hot for extra smokiness.
- Prepare Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, minced garlic, smoked paprika, lemon zest, lemon juice, and hot sauce if using.
- Arrange the Oysters: Place the oysters on a grill-safe tray or directly on the grill. Spoon the garlic butter mixture evenly over each oyster.
- Grill the Oysters: Cook for 5–7 minutes, until oysters are plump, slightly firm, and fragrant. Watch carefully—oysters cook quickly and should remain juicy.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove from the grill, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve immediately with lemon wedges.
