1
Prepare the Lobster
Start by filling a large pot with water and adding a tablespoon of sea salt. Bring the water to a boil.
2
Adding Lobster to Boiling Water
Once the water is boiling, carefully add the live lobsters to the pot. Cover with a lid and boil for about 8-10 minutes, or until the lobsters turn bright red and are fully cooked.

3
Prepare the Sauce
While the lobsters are cooking, melt the unsalted butter in a separate saucepan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
4
Add Wine and Seasoning
Pour in the white wine, add fresh thyme, and season with black pepper. Let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

5
Serve the Lobster
Once the lobsters are cooked, remove them from the pot and let them drain. Cut them in half lengthwise and place them on a serving plate. Drizzle the garlic butter sauce over the lobster halves.
6
Garnish and Enjoy
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the lobster and garnish with extra thyme if desired. Serve immediately.
