Creamy Garlic Butter Lobster Tails
Hey friends
I have to share this simple and cozy lobster recipe that feels fancy but is so easy to pull off. The lobster meat bakes in a rich garlic butter sauce that is creamy and bright with a touch of lemon. Serve it when you want to treat yourself or surprise someone special
Ingredients
1. four lobster tails about four ounces each
2. four tablespoons unsalted butter
3. three garlic cloves minced
4. half cup heavy cream
5. juice of half a lemon
6. one tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
7. salt and pepper to taste
8. pinch of paprika optional
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F
2. Using kitchen shears cut down the top of each lobster shell then gently lift the meat out keeping it attached at the base Place meat on top of the shell
3. Melt the butter in a small pan over medium low heat Add the garlic and cook about one minute until fragrant
4. Stir in the heavy cream lemon juice and paprika if you like Bring just to a simmer then remove from heat
5. Spoon half of the sauce over the lobster meat Season with salt and pepper
6. Place lobster on a baking sheet and bake eight to ten minutes until the meat turns opaque and is cooked through
7. Take out of the oven and drizzle with the remaining sauce Sprinkle with parsley and serve warm with lemon wedges
This dish pairs beautifully with a simple green salad crusty bread or roasted veggies. I know you will love how sweet the lobster meat tastes alongside that creamy garlic butter
