Yield 2 people

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 (6-8 ounce) lobster tails, thawed completely, butterflied, and piggy-backed
Clarified butter
Kosher salt
Chopped fresh parsley
Lemon wedges

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400º F. Place the lobster tails in a baking dish and brush the tail meat with clarified butter. Add 1 cup of water to the baking dish. Cover the dish with a piece of aluminum foil. Bake until the internal temperature of the tail meat reaches 135º-140º F, about 10-12 minutes. For larger tails, increase the baking time. A 10-12 ounce tail will take about 12-14 minutes and a 12-14 ounce tail will bake for approximately 14-16 minutes. Remove from the baking dish and place on a serving plate. Brush with more butter, season with salt to taste and sprinkle with parsley. Serve with additional clarified butter and lemon wedges.
