Step 1
Heat butter in a small skillet over medium. Add garlic and cook 45 seconds until fragrant, then remove from heat.
Step 2
Mix panko with the garlic butter in a bowl, breaking up clumps. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
Step 3
Arrange oyster shells on a baking sheet, nestling them so they sit flat and won't tip.
Step 4
Spoon panko-butter mixture onto each oyster, dividing evenly. Press gently so it sticks.
Step 5
Broil 3 inches from the heating element for 4–5 minutes until golden brown and sizzling.
Step 6
Squeeze lemon over the oysters, scatter parsley on top, and serve immediately.
