Serves 6
18 large fresh, canned or quick-frozen oysters
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
6 lemon wedges
Heat oven to 425°F. Grease a shallow baking pan with butter or margarine.
Mix the flour with the salt and pepper. Drain the oysters, dry them and roll in the flour mixture. Then dip them in the egg and roll in the flour again.
Arrange the oysters 1 layer deep in the baking dish. Pour the butter or margarine over each oyster. Bake 10 to 15 minutes, or until the oysters are lightly browned, basting twice. Garnish with lemon wedges.
