Lobster and Seasonings

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lobster

    If using live lobster, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully add the lobsters and cook for about 8-10 minutes until they are bright red. If using frozen, follow package instructions for cooking.

  2. 2

    Make the Garlic Butter Sauce

    In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice, chopped parsley, salt, black pepper, and paprika.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Once the lobsters are cooked, remove them from the pot and let them cool slightly. Cut them in half lengthwise and place them on a serving platter. Drizzle the garlic butter sauce over the lobster halves and garnish with additional parsley if desired.
