Method

Preparation of Lobster

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lobster

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat and stir in the minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Split the Lobster Tails

    Using kitchen shears, carefully cut the lobster tails down the middle, exposing the meat. Brush the melted butter mixture generously over the lobster meat.

Preparation of Vegetables

  1. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    In a bowl, mix the sliced zucchini, bell pepper, and julienned carrot. Drizzle the soy sauce and sesame oil over the vegetables and toss to coat.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Cook the Lobster

    Place the lobster tails on the grill, shell side down, and cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the meat is opaque and cooked through. Brush with more butter mixture halfway through the cooking time.

  2. 5

    Grill the Vegetables

    While the lobster is grilling, place the vegetables in a grill basket or on skewers. Grill for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender and slightly charred.

  3. 6

    Cook the Rice

    In a pot, combine the white rice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork before serving.
