A delightful recipe for preparing succulent lobster tails with a rich garlic butter sauce.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and a perfect texture.
Using kitchen shears, cut along the top of each lobster tail shell to expose the meat.
Be gentle to avoid damaging the meat.
Carefully lift the meat out of the shell, keeping it attached at the base, and lay it on top of the shell.
This presentation style is visually appealing and allows for even cooking.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat and stir in the minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Melting the butter slowly prevents it from burning.
Brush the garlic butter sauce generously over the lobster meat.
Basting ensures the flavors penetrate the meat.
Place the prepared lobster tails in a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the meat is opaque and cooked through.
Check for doneness by ensuring the meat is firm and white.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the cooked lobster tails before serving.
Lemon juice enhances the natural sweetness of the lobster.
