Ingredients
Lobster Tails
For this recipe, you’ll need 2 medium-sized lobster tails (about 5-6 ounces each). Fresh or frozen works well; just ensure they are thawed if frozen.
Butter
Use 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter. Melting the butter adds richness and flavor to the dish while keeping the meat moist during cooking.
Garlic
You will need 2 cloves of minced garlic. Fresh garlic provides a robust flavor that complements the sweetness of the lobster.
Lemon Juice
Add 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice. It brightens the dish and balances the richness of the butter.
Paprika
Use 1 teaspoon of paprika for a hint of color and mild spice. This ingredient enhances both appearance and taste.
Salt
To taste, use about 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Adjust according to your preference, as it enhances all flavors in the dish.
Black Pepper
Freshly ground black pepper adds a touch of warmth; approximately 1/4 teaspoon should suffice for a subtle kick.
