Ingredients:

  • 2 quarts water
  • 1 tbsp kosher salt
  • 3 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1/8 tsp ground ginger

Directions:

  1. In a large pot, add the water and kosher salt to boil. Add the lobster tails and allow to boil for about 20 minutes and the meat is white and the shells are bright red.
  2. Remove the tails from the water. I used tongs and they were easy to remove them that way. Allow them to cool for about 10 minutes.
  3. Turn on the broiler in your oven.
  4. Make the citrus butter in a small bowl. The 10 minutes while the lobster cools will allow the flavor to increase!
  5. Using a very sharp knife or kitchen shears, Cut off the top shell of the tail, exposing the meat. Lay the tails on a baking sheet and brush on the butter.
  6. Broil for about 6-8 minutes. Watch carefully to not burn!
  7. Enjoy with the remaining butter.
