Cooking Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 400°.
• Squeeze together the lobster tails at the bottom part of the shell to help the meat remove easily.
• Using kitchen shears, open up the shell starting at the opening of the tail on top and cut back until you reach the tail.
• Pull out the meat and place it on top of the shell for presentation, then place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
• Add the minced garlic to a pot with a stick of unsalted butter and heat over low to medium heat to cook the garlic slightly.
• Using a spoon or brush, add 2 tablespoons of garlic butter to each tail, ensuring some garlic is on the meat.
• Season the lobster with salt and pepper.
• Place the lobster on a middle rack in the oven and cook for 10 to 12 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 135°.
• Remove from the oven and let it rest for 1 to 2 minutes before serving.
• Serve the lobster tails on the sheet tray garnished with chives or parsley and leftover garlic butter.
