Ingredients:
2 lobster tails, split down the middle
8 large sea scallops, patted dry
Salt and pepper to taste
4 tbsp butter, divided
1 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp lemon juice
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions:
Prepare Seafood: Season lobster tails and scallops with salt and pepper.
Sear Scallops: In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. Add scallops and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and opaque. Remove scallops from the skillet and set aside.
Cook Lobster Tails: In the same skillet, add 1 more tablespoon of butter. Place lobster tails shell-side down, cooking for 5-6 minutes. Flip halfway through until the meat is opaque and cooked through.
Add Garlic Butter: Reduce heat to medium and add remaining butter to the skillet. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in lemon juice.
Combine and Serve: Return scallops to the skillet, spooning garlic butter over the lobster and scallops until well coated. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to heat through.
Garnish: Serve with fresh parsley and lemon wedges.
