Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon grated plain horseradish, drained if bottled (to taste)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice (to taste)
salt
fresh ground black pepper
2 dozen oysters, in the shell scrubbed

Steps:

  • Beat the cream to soft peaks in a chilled bowl; then fold in the horseradish, chives, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
  • Taste for seasoning, adding horseradish and lemon juice as necessary; the mixture should be highly seasoned.
  • If you have a fish or vegetable grate, preheat it on the grill grate (medium-high) for 5 minutes, then arrange the oysters on it, rounded side down-otherwise, arrange the oysters directly on the grill grate; grill 6-10 minutes, until the shells open.
  • Transfer the oysters to serving plates or a platter, discarding any top shells or oysters that did not open.
  • Place a spoonful of horseradish cream on each oyster and serve immediately.
