Lobster Tail Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lobster Tail

    Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Use kitchen shears to cut the top of the lobster shell lengthwise, exposing the meat. Gently pull the meat out slightly, and rest it on top of the shell.

  2. 2

    Make the Butter Mixture

    In a small bowl, melt the butter in the microwave or on the stove. Add minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the melted butter and mix well.

  3. 3

    Baste the Lobster

    Using a brush or spoon, generously baste the lobster meat with the butter mixture.

  4. 4

    Bake the Lobster

    Place the lobster tail on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the lobster meat is opaque and cooked through.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the lobster tail from the oven, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately with the remaining butter mixture on the side.
