Place oysters on sheet pan and place under broiler. Broil 4-5 minutes or until well browned on top. Remove from oven. Place 2 oysters on each plate. Portion a small amount of Sour Mango Slaw next to oysters. Drizzle with Tabasco Butter Sauce. Garnish with parsley sprigs. Serve.

Add remaining ingredients. Toss well to coat. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve. Note Start with 1/4 cup bread crumbs. If oysters are especially juicy, you may need to add up to another 1/4 cup bread crumbs. Rate it Print
