any Oyster recipes?

My Zinc levels are low, so I am supplementing my diet with Oysters, the most Zinc-rich food in the world.
I have several cans of Bumble Bee Oysters because I am too poor to afford fresh. I've never eaten them, so I probably won't know a difference right now anyways.
Are there any suggestions out there for meals to use them in? The thought of a pasta dish seems heavenly. Possibly an Oyster sauce?
Thanks for the tips

Oyster sauce is a good investment, just make sure to read the ingredients.

OK, I can understand the money issue. just please PLEASE! don't think that canned oysters in ANY WAY! resemble in taste and texture freshly shucked ones.
I'm completely lost as to what to do with canned oysters other than what most spaniards would do with most canned seafood and that's douse it with olive oil grab some toothpicks and sliced hearty bread and have at it.

Could also just take zinc supplements. I just can't see canned oysters being very good. I did at one point eat some canned smoked oysters when I was really high at like 3 AM, I seem to recall them tasting about as appetizing as you'd think

Thanks Pris, when I get some extra dollars I'm gonna hit those up.
Obviously, a culinary forum would be against canned foods. Organic tomatoes taste/are nutritionally better than canned, but sometimes you have to make do with what you have..

In general, I'm for canned foods (especially canned seafood).
I love tins of herring as much as any man alive.
It's specifically tinned oysters I think might be gross.
I'm also not much for recipes, but I'd imagine dicing them and making a nice rich red sauce for pasta would be fat milky titties.
