Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat broiler (Cook on the bottom broiler rack, or breadcrumbs will burn before the oysters are cooked though.

2. Combine first 7 ingredients in medium bowl; stir gently.

3. Place bread in a food processor, process until coarse crumbs measure 1/2 cup. Combine breadcrumbs and butter in a small bowl.

4. Arrange oysters on a broiler pan. Spoon about 2 tablespoon crab mixture over each oyster; sprinkle each with about 1 teaspoon breadcrumb mixture. Broil 7 minutes or until tops are browned and oysters are done.
