1
Prepare the Lobster
Begin by preheating your grill or oven to 375°F (190°C). Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the lobster tails down the center, exposing the meat. Remove any intestinal veins and rinse the tails under cold water.
2
Season the Lobster
Rub the lobster meat with salt and black pepper. Optional: brush a bit of melted clarified butter over the meat for extra flavor.
3
Cook the Lobster
Place the lobster tails on the grill or in the oven. Grill for about 8-10 minutes, or bake for 12-15 minutes, until the meat is opaque and cooked through. Baste occasionally with clarified butter during cooking.
4
Prepare the Potatoes
While the lobster is cooking, prepare your potatoes. Boil or bake them until tender, about 15-20 minutes for boiling or 45-60 minutes for baking, depending on size. Once cooked, season with salt, pepper, and a bit of clarified butter if desired.
5
Serve
Once the lobster and potatoes are cooked, plate them together. Drizzle the lobster with additional clarified butter and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
