Ingredients

1 stick unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons minced shallots
1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
1 tablespoon roasted garlic
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
For the oysters:
24 oysters (in the shell)
1 baguette, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
Directions

- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Open the oysters with an oyster knife. Divide the oysters among small baking dishes lined with baguette slices. Place a heaping teaspoon of garlic-parsley butter on each oyster. Roast the oysters until the butter is melted, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve immediately.
