I found this recipe quite some time ago on another site and thought it sounded very good. I think the addition of the spices is very interesting and I can't wait to try it.

Ingredients

2 eggs
2/3 cup milk
1 tablespoon creole seasoning
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
2 dozen oysters
2 cups seasoned fish fry or 2 cups cornmeal
3/4 cup cornstarch
2 tablespoons creole seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning

Steps:

Combine the first 9 ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
Add in the oysters and marinate at least 30 minutes in the fridge.
Put the remaining ingredients in a paper bag and mix well by shaking.
Remove the oysters from the marinade and drop in the bag.
Shake the bag to coat the oysters and let them rest in the bag for a few minutes.
Heat about 2" of oil in the pan to 365 degrees.
Place the oysters in the oil leaving at least a 3/4" space between pieces (do not overcrowd them or the oysters will be soggy).
Fry the oysters about 4 minutes or until done.
Remove to paper towels to drain.
After most of the oil has drained, remove to fresh paper towels.
Make sure the oil is at least 360 degrees before adding and frying the next batch.
