Crispy Breaded Oysters Appetizer


These crispy breaded oysters make a fancy appetizer for entertaining. They’re delicious and healthy, without the added fat.  Oysters coated with egg panko and cheese, and then baked until crisp and golden.

If you are an oyster lover, you may want to double the recipe; these baked breaded oysters are so light and tasty.






Ingredients: (yield 12-14, 2 oysters/serving)

¼ cup all-purpose flour
Salt & pepper to taste
1 egg
½ cup panko crumbs
1/3 cup grated cheese (optional)
1-2 tbsp. dried chives
¼ tsp. garlic salt
8 ounces frozen oysters, thawed
1 tbsp. olive oil

Directions:

You will need 3 shallow plates.

In the first plate, combine the flour, salt and pepper. In the second one, whisk the egg. And in the third one, combine panko, chive, cheese (if using) and garlic salt.

Coat the oysters with the flour mixture, then dip in the egg, and then coat with panko crumbs.

Place in a greased baking sheet and drizzle or spray with olive oil.

Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or until crisp and golden brown.

Serve immediately with lemon wedges or with your favorite low fat sauce.
