Your Oyster Recipe of the Day: Emeril’s Grilled Oysters. Emeril Lagasse’s recipe for grilled oysters starts with a rich compound butter. He blends Parmigiano-Reggiano, parsley, lemon, garlic, chives and a little hot sauce and cayenne pepper with softened butter and then freezes it. Once set, slices of the butter are added to oysters and then grilled for about 5 minutes.
