Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Lobster Tails

Using kitchen shears, cut the top shell of the lobster tail lengthwise down the center. Carefully pull the meat out and lay it on top of the shell.

2

Make the Butter Mixture

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine and remove from heat.

3

Brush the Lobster

Preheat your grill or oven broiler. Brush the lobster meat with the garlic butter mixture generously.

4

Cook the Lobster

Place the lobster tails on the grill or under the broiler. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, or until the meat is opaque and fully cooked, basting with the remaining butter mixture halfway through.

5

Garnish and Serve

Remove the lobster tails from the heat, and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve immediately with additional lemon wedges and garlic butter on the side.
