INGREDIENTS:
4 cups peanut oil 24 oysters, shucked and in their own liquor 4 cups Seafood Breading



1 In a high-side suacepan on medium-high heat bring the oil up to a temperature of 350 F to 375 F. Check your temperature with a candy thermometer. (Some appliances, such as a Waring Pro Deep Fryer or Euro-Pro, work well if you do not want to mess with a pan.)
2 Drain the oysters and dredge them with the breading mix. Carefully add them to the hot oil, cook until crispy and golden-about 1 minute-and retrieve them with a slotted spoon. You can rest them on paper towels. Serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges. Serve six per person.
