Decadent broiled lobster with rich garlic butter.

Broiled Lobster Tail with Garlic Herb Butter is a luxurious and flavorful dish. The rich garlic herb butter melts into the tender lobster meat, infusing it with savory, aromatic goodness. The combination of garlic, parsley, and lemon adds a delightful freshness that enhances the natural sweetness of the lobster. This dish is perfect for special occasions or a gourmet home-cooked meal. Serve it with steamed asparagus or a fresh green salad to balance the richness. A side of creamy mashed potatoes or a crusty baguette to soak up the remaining butter sauce will make the meal complete.

Ingredients

4 lobster tails (about 5-6 ounces each)

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• 6 large garlic cloves, minced
• 1/3 cup white wine
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• Lemon slices, to serve

Directions

1. Preheat your oven’s broiler and position a rack in the middle of the oven.
2. Rinse the lobster tails and pat them dry with paper towels.
3. Using sharp kitchen shears, cut the top shell down the center of the back to the end of the tail, leaving the tail fan intact. Remove the vein or shell shards, if any.
4. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
5. Add the white wine, lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper to the saucepan. Allow to simmer and reduce slightly for 2-3 minutes.
6. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the chopped parsley.
7. Place the lobster tails on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper.
8. Brush the garlic herb butter sauce generously over the lobster meat.
9. Broil the lobster tails for about 10 minutes, or until the lobster meat is opaque and cooked through.
10. Serve the lobster tails with lemon slices and any remaining garlic herb butter sauce.
