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



1 In a high-side saucepan 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, suce as a Waring Pro Deep Fryer or a 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. While frying the oysters, heat the Firecracker Sauce in a frying pan. Toss in the crispy, fried oysters and coat evenly. Serve hot with crackers or toast.
