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.
