Prepare the Lobster Tails:
-
Preheat your oven to broil or 500°F (260°C).
-
Using kitchen shears, cut the top of the lobster shell down the middle, stopping at the base of the tail.
-
Gently separate the meat from the shell, keeping the base attached. Lift the meat and place it on top of the shell for that classic presentation.
-
-
Make the Garlic Butter:
-
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
-
-
Butter the Lobster:
-
Brush the garlic butter mixture generously over the lobster meat.
-
-
Broil the Lobster:
-
Place the lobster tails on a baking sheet or in a baking dish.
-
Broil about 6 inches from the heat for about 8-10 minutes, or until the lobster meat is opaque and the internal temperature reaches 140°F (60°C). Make sure to keep an eye on them to avoid overcooking.
-
-
Garnish and Serve:
-
Once done, remove from the oven, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for an extra zing.
-
-
Butter Basting: During the last couple of minutes of broiling, you can baste the lobster with more of the garlic butter for added flavor.
-
Cooking Variations: If you prefer grilling, you can prepare the tails the same way and grill them on medium heat, turning occasionally, for about 8-12 minutes.
-
Pairing: This dish pairs wonderfully with a light, crisp white wine like Sauvignon Blanc or a buttery Chardonnay. For sides, consider asparagus, garlic mashed potatoes, or a simple green salad.
