Looking to impress? This lobster recipe delivers tender, juicy lobster tails cooked in rich garlic butter—just like you'd find at a fancy seafood restaurant. Whether you’re planning a romantic dinner or a holiday feast, this elegant dish is easier than it looks.

Ingredients:

  • 2 lobster tails (thawed if frozen)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley (for garnish)
  • Lemon wedges (for serving)

Instructions:

1. Prep the lobster tails:
Use kitchen scissors to cut through the top of the shell lengthwise. Gently pull the meat out and lay it over the shell.

2. Melt the butter:
In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

3. Cook the lobster:
Add the lobster tails, meat side down. Spoon the garlic butter over them and cook for 5–7 minutes, flipping once, until opaque and firm.

4. Finish and serve:
Drizzle with lemon juice, sprinkle with parsley, and serve hot with extra lemon butter on the side.
