Ingredients

For the Oysters:

For the Pomegranate Mignonette:

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Mignonette:
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together champagne vinegar, minced shallots, black pepper, monk fruit sweetener, and sea salt.
  3. Gently fold in pomegranate seeds and let the mixture sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. Bring 1 inch of water to a simmer in a large pot.

  5. Place whole oysters in a steamer basket, cover, and steam for 4-5 minutes until shells slightly open.

  6. If not already shucked, carefully open the oysters with an oyster knife, keeping as much natural briny liquid (liquor) in the shell as possible.
  7. Place the oysters on a bed of crushed ice to keep them cold and fresh.

     

  8. Spoon about ½ teaspoon of pomegranate mignonette over each oyster.

  9. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
