Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lobster Tails

    In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the lobster tails and cook for about 8-10 minutes until the shells are bright red and the meat is opaque.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Crab Meat

    In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute. Add the crab meat and sauté for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Once the lobster tails are cooked, remove them from the pot and let them cool slightly. Slice the lobster tails down the center and gently pull the meat out. Place the lobster meat in a serving dish.

  4. 4

    Add Crab Meat

    Top the lobster meat with the sautéed crab meat. Drizzle with the remaining melted butter and lemon juice.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Sprinkle with chopped parsley, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve warm.
