Get started
Preheat the oven grill. Peel and chop the onion. Peel and finely chop the garlic. Chop the sausage into fine pieces. Melt half of the butter in a small saucepan. Saute the onion for 3 minutes until translucent. Add the garlic and cook for a further 3 minutes. Stir in the chorizo and fry the sausage until crispy. Set aside. Hold each oyster with a kitchen towel and carefully open the shell with an oyster knife. Remove the top shell. Cut the oyster loose and remove any shell grit. Place the oysters on a baking tray. Spoon a teaspoon of the chorizo mixture onto each oyster and top with a flake of butter. Slide the baking tray under the hot grill and roast the oysters for 3-5 minutes until brown and cooked through. Serve with lemon wedges.
