Lobster Tail Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lobster Tail

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Using kitchen scissors, cut the top shell of the lobster tail down the center, making sure not to cut the meat. Gently pull the meat out of the shell and place it on top, while still keeping it attached at the base.

  2. 2

    Make the Garlic Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Baste the Lobster

    Place the lobster tail on a baking dish. Brush the garlic butter mixture generously over the lobster meat, ensuring it is well coated.

  4. 4

    Bake the Lobster

    Bake the lobster tail in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the meat is opaque and cooked through. Baste with more garlic butter halfway through the cooking time.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy your delicious Canadian cold-water lobster tail!
