Lobster Tail Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lobster Tails

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Using kitchen shears, cut the top of the lobster shells lengthwise, stopping just before the tail fin. Gently pull the lobster meat out and lay it on top of the shell.

  2. 2

    Make the Butter Sauce

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in lemon juice, paprika, salt, and pepper.

  3. 3

    Coat the Lobster

    Brush the lobster meat with the garlic butter sauce, ensuring it's well coated.

  4. 4

    Bake the Lobster Tails

    Place the prepared lobster tails on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the lobster meat is opaque and cooked through.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from the oven, drizzle with remaining garlic butter sauce, and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
