Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lobster Tails

    Using kitchen scissors, carefully cut the top shell of the lobster tails lengthwise to expose the meat. Do not cut all the way through; leave the tail end intact.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  3. 3

    Make the Butter Sauce

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

  4. 4

    Coat the Lobster

    Place the lobster tails on a baking sheet. Gently lift the meat out of the shell and drizzle half of the butter sauce over the exposed lobster meat.

  5. 5

    Bake the Lobster

    Bake the lobster tails in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the meat is opaque and cooked through.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from oven, drizzle with the remaining butter sauce, and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
