Ingredients:
For the Lobster Tails:
4 lobster tails
Salt and pepper to taste
1 lemon, cut into wedges for serving
Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
For the Garlic Herb Butter Sauce:
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon paprika (optional for color)
Instructions:
Prepare the Lobster Tails:
Butterfly the Lobster Tails: Using kitchen shears, carefully cut down the top shell of each lobster tail, stopping just before the tail fin. Gently pull the shell apart to expose the meat, then lift the meat slightly, resting it on top of the shell. Season the lobster meat with salt and pepper.
Make the Garlic Herb Butter Sauce:
Mix the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, thyme, rosemary, lemon juice, and paprika if using. Stir until well combined.
Bake the Lobster Tails:
Brush with Butter Sauce: Generously brush the lobster meat with the garlic herb butter sauce, making sure to coat the meat thoroughly.
Bake: Place the prepared lobster tails on the baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the lobster meat is opaque and cooked through. Baste the lobster with the butter sauce halfway through baking for extra flavor.
Serve:
Garnish and Plate: Remove the lobster tails from the oven and garnish with fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice.
Enjoy: Serve the lobster tails hot, with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing. Pair with your favorite sides like roasted vegetables, garlic bread, or a fresh salad for a complete, luxurious meal.
Enjoy these rich, succulent, and utterly satisfying Lobster Tails with Garlic Herb Butter Sauce, perfect for any special occasion!
