Lobster Tail Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lobster Tails

    Using kitchen scissors, carefully cut the top shell of the lobster tails down the center, stopping just before the tail fin. Gently pull apart the shell to expose the meat.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  3. 3

    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.

  4. 4

    Brush the Lobster Meat

    Place the lobster tails on a baking tray and brush the exposed lobster meat generously with the butter mixture.

  5. 5

    Bake the Lobster Tails

    Bake the lobster tails in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the lobster meat is opaque and cooked through.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the lobster tails from the oven, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and serve immediately with the remaining butter mixture on the side.
