Method
Lobster Preparation
- 1
Boiling the Lobsters
In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 tablespoon of sea salt. Carefully add the live lobsters to the boiling water, headfirst. Cover the pot and cook for 8-10 minutes until the lobsters turn bright red. Remove the lobsters and place them in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.

Cooling and Shelling
Once the lobsters are cool enough to handle, remove the meat from the claws, tails, and body. Set aside the lobster meat in a bowl and discard the shells.

Making the Herb Butter
In a small saucepan, melt 1 cup of unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, add the minced garlic, chopped parsley, chopped thyme, black pepper, and lemon juice. Stir continuously until the garlic is fragrant but not browned, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
