Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lobster

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully add the whole lobster to the boiling water and cook for 8-10 minutes until the lobster is bright red and cooked through. Remove the lobster from the pot and transfer it to an ice bath to chill for 10-15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Extract the Meat

    Once the lobster is cooled, crack the shell and remove the meat from the claws and tail. Cut the meat into bite-sized pieces and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Dressing

    In a small bowl, combine melted butter, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice (from the zested lemon), and black pepper. Mix well.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Arrange the lobster meat on a serving platter. Drizzle the garlic butter dressing over the lobster and garnish with chopped parsley and lemon wedges. Serve chilled.
