Lobster Tails Ingredients
Method
Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Lobster Tails
Using kitchen scissors, carefully cut the top shell of each lobster tail lengthwise, exposing the meat. Gently pull the meat out of the shell and lay it on top while still attached at the base.
Make the Butter Mixture
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Baste the Lobster
Preheat your broiler. Place the lobster tails on a baking sheet and brush the butter mixture generously over the exposed lobster meat.
Broil the Lobster Tails
Broil the lobster tails for about 8-10 minutes or until the meat is opaque and cooked through. Baste with the butter mixture halfway through the cooking time.
Garnish and Serve
Once cooked, remove the lobster tails from the oven. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately with extra lemon wedges if desired.
