Instructions: Scrub and rinse the oysters under cold running water. Place the oysters around the edge of a large microwave plate (two may go in the middle if necessary).

With the microwave on HIGH, cook for 5 to 7 minutes or until the shells open; turn the plate every 3 minutes for even cooking.

Remove the oysters from their shells with a shucking knife. Place them on heated dish and keep them warm.

Meanwhile, combine the margarine, lemon juice and Tabasco sauce in a small microwave dish.

Cook on HIGH 20 to 25 seconds or until the margarine is melted. Serve with the oysters.
