Step 1
Shuck oysters, keeping them on the half shell. Arrange on a baking sheet lined with salt or crumpled foil to keep them steady.
Step 2
Melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook 45 seconds until fragrant, then remove from heat.
Step 3
Stir panko, parmesan, and parsley into the garlic butter until combined.
Step 4
Spoon about 1 tbsp of the mixture onto each oyster, pressing gently so it sticks.
Step 5
Broil 4 inches from the heat for 5–6 minutes until the topping is golden and the edges of the oyster start to curl.
Step 6
Squeeze fresh lemon over the oysters and serve immediately.
