Broiled Lobster Tail with Garlic Butter Sauce Recipe

Preheat your broiler to high.
Use kitchen shears to carefully cut the top shell of each lobster tail down the middle, lengthwise. Gently pull the shell apart and expose the lobster meat. You can either leave the meat attached to the shell or gently lift it slightly for a more dramatic presentation.
Make the Garlic Butter Sauce:

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Stir in the lemon juice, paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Let the sauce simmer for a minute, then remove from heat.
Broil the Lobster Tails:

Place the lobster tails on a broiler-safe pan, meat side up.
Brush the lobster meat generously with the garlic butter sauce, saving some sauce for serving.
Broil the lobster tails for 8-10 minutes, or until the lobster meat is opaque and firm to the touch. The meat should reach an internal temperature of 140°F (60°C).
Finish and Serve:

Remove the lobster tails from the broiler and drizzle with the remaining garlic butter sauce.
Garnish with fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice for added freshness.
