  1. Make the cocktail sauce by combining the ketchup and wasabi horseradish together, to taste, mix well then set aside to allow flavors to mingle.
  2. Season the panko by combining the panko seasonings with fresh parsley, garlic powder, and sea salt & freshly cracked pepper, to taste.
  3. Heat the butter and oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Dip the oysters, one at a time, in the panko crumbs, making sure to coat the entire oyster evenly.
  5. Place into the HOT nonstick skillet. Repeat with the remaining jar of oysters, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
  6. Cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes, carefully flip the oysters over, and continue to cook until golden brown and crisp, about 1-2 minutes.
  7. Remove the oysters from the nonstick skillet and place them on a paper towel lined plate to drain some of the grease.
  8. Serve immediately with lemon wedges and cocktail sauce. Enjoy!
