Creamy Garlic Butter Lobster Tails
Ingredients
4 lobster tails
4 tbsp butter, divided
4 garlic cloves, minced
½ cup heavy cream
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Salt and pepper, to taste
Directions
Prepare the Lobsters: Begin by setting your oven to a toasty 425°F (220°C). Use the sharp edge of kitchen shears to carefully cut and expose the tender meat atop the lobster shells.
Season with Flair: Lightly season each lobster tail with a sprinkling of salt, pepper, and a touch of melted butter.
Oven Time: Place the prepared tails on a baking sheet and let them bake in the oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until the meat turns perfectly firm and alluringly opaque.
Create the Creamy Sauce: In a medium skillet, melt the remaining butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, allowing its fragrance to fill the air. Stir in heavy cream and Parmesan cheese, letting it gently simmer and thicken into perfection. Finish with a splash of lemon juice and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Final Touches: Drizzle the indulgent garlic butter sauce over each baked lobster tail and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
