DIRECTIONS
- Combine the first 9 ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
- Add in the oysters and marinate at least 30 minutes in the fridge.
- Put the remaining ingredients in a paper bag and mix well by shaking.
- Remove the oysters from the marinade and drop in the bag.
- Shake the bag to coat the oysters and let them rest in the bag for a few minutes.
- Heat about 2" of oil in the pan to 365 degrees.
- Place the oysters in the oil leaving at least a 3/4" space between pieces (do not overcrowd them or the oysters will be soggy).
- Fry the oysters about 4 minutes or until done.
- Remove to paper towels to drain.
- After most of the oil has drained, remove to fresh paper towels.
- Make sure the oil is at least 360 degrees before adding and frying the next batch.
