This recipe from chef Douglas Sisk of Miami Beach’s The Social Club gives a nod to the sandwich’s New Orleans upbringing with a Cajun cream cheese spread.

Ingredients
  • 8 ounce cream cheese
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon cajun seasoning
  • 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
  • salt, to taste
  • 3 shucked oysters
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup canola oil
  • 2 slices white toast
  • 2 leaves lettuce
  • 1/4 cucumber, sliced thinly
  • 2 slices tomato
  • salt, to taste
Directions
  1. Place all of the ingredients in a bowl of a food processor, season with salt to taste, and purée until smooth. Set aside and refrigerate until ready to use.
  2. Batter each oyster in a little bit of flour, then egg wash, and then the panko breadcrumbs. Heat the canola oil in a sauté pan to 375 degrees. Fry the oysters until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Remove from the oil and immediately season with salt and set on a paper towel to drain.
  3. Spread the Cajun cream cheese on each slice of white toast and assemble the sandwich with fried oysters, lettuce, cucumber, and tomato.
