Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lobster Tails

    Using kitchen scissors, carefully cut down the top shell of each lobster tail, stopping just before the tail fin. Gently pull apart the shell to expose the meat and pull it slightly out for better presentation.

  2. 2

    Season the Lobster

    Sprinkle the lobster meat with salt, black pepper, and paprika, ensuring even coverage.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Oven

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

  2. 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 meat is opaque and cooked through.

  3. 5

    Melt the Butter

    While the lobster is baking, melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and set aside.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Lobster

    Once the lobster tails are cooked, remove them from the oven and place on serving plates.

  2. 7

    Serve with Butter and Lemon

    Serve the lobster tails warm with melted drawn butter and a wedge of lemon on the side for squeezing over the lobster meat.
