Garlic Butter Lobster Tails

by

🔥 Instructions

1. Prep the Lobster Tails

  • Using kitchen scissors, cut down the top shell of each lobster tail lengthwise.
  • Gently pull the meat out and rest it on top of the shell (this is called butterflying).
  • Pat dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.

2. Make Garlic Butter

  • In a bowl, mix melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, and paprika.
  • Brush generously over the lobster meat.

3. Cook

  • Oven (Broiled): Preheat broiler. Place lobster tails on a baking sheet and broil for 8–10 minutes, or until meat is opaque and slightly browned.
  • Grill: Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill lobster tails shell-side down for 5–7 minutes, basting with garlic butter.

4. Serve

  • Drizzle with remaining garlic butter and serve with lemon wedges.

🌟 Pro Tips

  • Add a splash of white wine to the butter for extra depth.
  • Pair with mashed potatoes, grilled asparagus, or a crisp salad.
  • For a spicy kick, add a pinch of cayenne or chili flakes to the butter.
