Ingredients
4 whole Lobster tails
4 tablespoons Butter, unsalted
½ tablespoon Garlic powder
2 teaspoons Paprika
1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
1 whole Lemon, cut into wedges
Fresh Parsley, chopped for garnish
Instructions
Preheat your oven to BROIL at 500°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Preparation: Hold the lobster tail with the shell up. Cut the shell down the middle with scissors, stopping at the tail end. Flip and press down on the shell to crack it, then flip back, loosen the meat, and lift it through the shell.
Butter Sauce: Melt butter in a microwave-safe bowl, add garlic powder, paprika, and Cajun seasoning. Microwave for 30 seconds, stirring once.
Place the lobster tails on the baking sheet. Spoon the butter mixture over the tails.
Cook: Broil for 10 minutes. Remove and baste with any remaining butter. Garnish with parsley and lemon wedges.
