Fried Oyster BLT

Time for another couple of oyster recipes.

Canola oil, for frying

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup yellow cornmeal

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1 teaspoon granulated garlic

1 teaspoon granulated onion

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

12 fresh oysters, shucked and drained

1/4 cup mayonnaise

3 teaspoons Sriracha sauce

4 slices Texas toast

4 slices applewood-smoked bacon, cooked

2 slices of tomatoes

2 leaves green leaf lettuce

In a heavy-bottomed skillet, pour oil to a depth of 2 inches, and heat over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350℉.

In a medium bowl, stir together flour, cornmeal, salt, granulated garlic, granulated onion, and cayenne pepper until combined. Dredge oysters in flour mixture, shaking off the excess.

Fry until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Remove oysters with a slotted spoon, and let drain on a plate lined with paper towels.

In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce. Spread mayonnaise mixture over one side of each bread slice. Top half of bread slices with oysters, bacon, tomato, and lettuce. Cover with remaining bread slice, spread side down.
