Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 (4 1/2 ounce) lobster tails
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons fresh orange juice
1 dash salt
1 dash pepper
1 dash paprika

Steps:

  • Cut the lobster tails down the center through the meat but not all the way through the shell.
  • Fold over butterfly style.
  • Combine remaining ingredients and brush over the meat.
  • Put some foil over your grill and place the tails, shell side down on the foil.
  • Cook, covered, for about 14-16 minutes until the meat is firm and white.
  • Brush occasionally while cooking.
  • Loosen the meat slightly before serving and brush one last time with the citrus butter.
  • NOTE: We broiled instead of grilled.
  • Used a broiling pan with the broiler on low, with the tails about 6 inches from the heat source and watched them the entire time.
  • We serve with the remaining citrus butter.
  • You may choose to make extra.
