Really great way to grill oysters! The flavours work really well together and wrapping the oysters in prosciutto protects them from direct heat so they don't burn while the parmesan browns. Only change I made was that I only had dried chives so mixed them with the tomato and lemon juice while cooking the oysters to help reconstitute them a little.
