Who doesn’t want to eat lobster cooked in a most tasteful way? And would you believe that Costco had lobster tails for a relatively good price? For around $60-$70, I was able to get 9 smaller sized lobster tails that I froze in quantities of 5 and 4. I’ve already cooked the quantity of 5, so now it’s time to cook the other 4 and fortunately, I also found a delightful recipe that give better than restaurant quality lobster tails. Don’t be put off by the small amount of work that goes into cooking these beauties. The flavor is well worth the minimal amount of work you need to do.
Broiled Lobster Tails in Garlic Butter
Ingredients:
- 1 lb Lobster Tails
- 6 Tablespoons Butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Preparation:
- Preheat: Preheat oven to broil (500° F) and place the oven rack 5 inches from the top heating element.
- Butterfly lobster tails: Using sharp kitchen shears, cut down the length of the lobster tail just before reaching the tail fin. Pull out the meat and lay it on top of the shell. If needed, use a spoon to help detach the meat from the shell. See video below to see how to do it.
- Make garlic butter: Combine all ingredients for the garlic butter sauce and brush on top of lobster. Thoroughly cover the meat to keep it moist and prevent it from drying out in the oven. Make extra for serving if desired.
- Broil: Broil until the lobster is fully cooked. It should take about 7 to 10 minutes depending on size. The meat should be firm, opaque, and white in color with an internal temperature of 140° to 145° F. Serve with lemon wedges. Enjoy!
