Is that like a kind of chicken tatake?

Tataki you mean? Yes, either that or aburi. Tataki tends to be done over a grill or quickly boiled, but aburi is done with one of those mini hand-held burners.
You reminded me - I need to try live oyster. I have yet to do so, and they`re in season now. I love cooked oyster, so keep wanting to try raw but forget.
