Instructions

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 450 degrees, you'll be using a small baking sheet (careful not to use anything that will shatter at 450 degrees if you choose not to use a baking sheet).
  2. Cut the lobster tails in the middle of the shell from the top to the tail carefully, stopping just shy of the tail.
  3. Try to separate the tail meat from the shell while cutting to avoid cutting the lobster meat.
  4. Pull the meat away gently from the sides of the shell and lift it out and over the cut shell so the meat is outside the shell.
  5. Using a knife make a very shallow cut into the lobster meat and pull the meat to the sides (this will show about an inch of the white lobster meat of the tail and make it look more traditional).
  6. In a small bowl add the melted butter, garlic, kosher salt, black pepper and paprika and stir.
  7. Add the lobster tails to your baking sheet and brush the melted butter mixture over the lobster tails.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
  9. Garnish with parsley and lemon wedges.
