Lobster Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

1

Boil the Lobster

Fill a large pot with 2 liters of water and add 1 tsp of salt. Bring the water to a rolling boil. Carefully add the live lobsters to the pot and cover. Boil for about 8-10 minutes for the first lobster and 10-12 minutes for each additional lobster, or until the shells turn bright red.

2

Prepare the Garlic Butter

While the lobsters are boiling, melt 1 cup of unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add 4 minced garlic cloves and sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and stir in 2 tbs of fresh lemon juice and 1 tbs of finely chopped fresh parsley.

3

Serve

Once the lobsters are cooked, remove them from the pot and drain. Allow them to cool slightly before cracking the shells to extract the meat. Serve the lobster with the garlic butter sauce drizzled over the top, and season with black pepper and additional lemon juice if desired.
