For an even richer flavor, consider using homemade chicken broth. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your preference. A pinch adds warmth, while more delivers a noticeable kick. Fresh herbs, such as thyme and parsley, can be added at the end for a brighter flavor. Ensure the oysters are fresh. The oyster liquor adds a wonderful flavor, so don't discard it. Do not overcook the oysters, or they will become tough.
