Breaded Coconut Pacific Oysters

Ingredients:

• 2 Tubs shucked Pacific Oyster Meat

• 2 Eggs

• ½ cup Coconut (optional)

• 1 cup Panko Breadcrumbs

• ½ tsp Garlic Powder

• ½ tsp Salt

• 2/3 cup Flour

• Vegetable Oil - enough to fill a medium pot 3"

Directions:

In three bowls, prepare the following mixtures:

• Bowl 1: Flour

• Bowl 2: Beaten Eggs

• Bowl 3: Breadcrumbs, Coconut, Garlic Powder and Salt.

1. Heat oil to med-high (it's ready when a sprinkling of flour sizzles when dropped in)

2. Take an oyster, dredge in flour, tap off excess. Then dredge in egg, and finally, in the breadcrumb mixture.

3. Gently place each breaded oyster into the hot oil.

4. Remove from oil when golden brown, and place on paper towel to blot.

5. Serve with your favourite dipping sauce, we like mango chutney, tartar sauce, or marinara seafood sauce.
