Description

A simple guide to cooking succulent lobster tails, featuring buttery garlic flavors and zest of lemon.


Ingredients

  • Lobster tails

  • Herbs (optional)


Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  2. Add the lobster tails and boil for about 8-10 minutes, until the meat is opaque.
  3. Remove the tails and place them on a cutting board.
  4. Use kitchen scissors to cut the shell and expose the meat.
  5. In a skillet, melt butter and add minced garlic.
