    Ingredients

    • 4-6 shucked oysters 
    • 2 cups all-purpose flour 
    • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
    • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika 
    • 1 teaspoon onion powder
    • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
    • 1 teaspoon dried thyme 
    • 1 teaspoon sea salt 
    • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    • 1/2 cup cornmeal 
    • 1/2 cup buttermilk 
    • 1/4 cup vegetable oil 
    • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 
    • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
    • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley 
    • 4-6 hamburger buns 
    • Tartar sauce
    • Lettuce

    Method

    • Start by preparing the batter for the oysters. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the flour, garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper.
    • In a separate bowl, mix together the cornmeal, buttermilk, and oil.
    • Dip each oyster into the cornmeal mixture, then coat in the flour mixture.
    • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter and let it melt.
    • Add the oysters and fry for 2-3 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Remove from heat and set aside.
    • To assemble the sandwiches, place the oysters on the buns and top with lettuce, tomatoes, tartar sauce, and parsley. Serve immediately.
