Directions

Special equipment:
Food Processor
  1. For the garlic butter: Mix together the butter, garlic puree, minced garlic, salt and pepper in a bowl with a rubber spatula.
  2. For the garlic mojo: Place the roasted garlic puree, lemon juice, balsamic, salt, thyme, garlic powder, pepper, lemon zest, jalapeño and 1/4 cup water into a food processor. Blend until smooth, about 2 minutes. With the processor is running, slowly add the oil, then turn off the processor. Add the green onions, then pulse the food processor until the onions are dispersed, about 7 times.
  3. For the oysters: Preheat a convection oven to 425 degrees F.
  4. Carefully shuck the oysters and arrange them on a baking sheet. Top each oyster in its shell with 1/2 teaspoon garlic butter and 1 teaspoon garlic mojo. Cover each oyster with about 2 teaspoons breadcrumbs. Bake until the oysters are cooked through and breadcrumbs are golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Arrange the cooked oysters on a serving plate and garnish with the lemon wedges.
