Lobster Tails

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lobster

    Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Rinse the lobster tails under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Using kitchen scissors, carefully cut down the top of the lobster shell to expose the meat.

  2. 2

    Make the Butter Sauce

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

  3. 3

    Baste and Bake

    Place the lobster tails in a baking dish, meat side up. Generously baste the exposed meat with the prepared butter sauce. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes until the lobster meat is opaque and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the lobster tails from the oven. Drizzle with any remaining butter sauce and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
