Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Thaw the Lobster Tails

    If using frozen lobster tails, place them in the refrigerator overnight to thaw. If you're short on time, you can run them under cold water for about 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Warm Water

    In a medium-sized bowl or pot, heat 8 oz of water until it is warm but not boiling. You can test it with your finger; it should feel warm to the touch.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Lobster Tails

    Submerge the thawed lobster tails in the warm water. Let them soak for about 5-7 minutes until they are heated through. Make sure not to overcook them.

  2. 4

    Prepare the Garlic Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add minced garlic cloves and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Serving

  1. 5

    Plate the Lobster Tails

    Carefully remove the lobster tails from the warm water and place them on a serving platter.

  2. 6

    Drizzle with Garlic Butter

    Spoon the garlic butter mixture over the lobster tails, ensuring each tail is generously coated.

  3. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish with additional lemon wedges and fresh herbs if desired. Serve immediately while warm.
