AJ's Chargrilled Oysters

Ingredients

24 fresh shucked oysters, on the half shell
1 lb unsalted butter
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 bunches green onions, finely chopped
20 garlic cloves, pureed
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh thyme
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh oregeno
2 tablespoons AJ's or creole seasoning
2 ounces white wine
1 cup grated parmesan cheese

Directions

Melt half the butter in a medium sauce pan over medium heat. Add your lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, green onions and all herbs and seasonings. Cook for 2-3 minutes, then stir in wine. Drink the rest.
Keep stirring and remove from heat as soon as the green onions wilt. Let cool for 3-4 minutes. Add the rest of the butter and stir until completely incorporated.
Heat grill to to 350°F Place oysters on grill. When the oyster liquor starts to bubble, spoon 1 tablespoon of sauce on top of each, then top with 1 tablespoon of Parmesan cheese. Let the cheese melt.
When oysters begin to slightly brown at the edges, remove from grill and place on a heat proof plate or tray.
Top each oyster with an additional tablespoon of the butter sauce and serve immediately with slices of Gambino french bread for dipping.
