Creamy Garlic Butter Lobster Tails

4 lobster tails

4 tbsp butter (divided)

4 garlic cloves (minced)

½ cup heavy cream

¼ cup Parmesan cheese (grated)

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 tbsp fresh parsley (chopped)

Salt and pepper (to taste)

Prepare Lobster Tails: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Using kitchen shears, cut the top of each lobster shell lengthwise and gently pull the meat out, placing it on top of the shell.

Season Lobster: Season the lobster tails with salt, pepper, and a little melted butter.

Bake: Place the lobster tails on a baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes until the meat is firm and opaque.

Make Garlic Butter Sauce: In a skillet, melt the remaining butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Stir in heavy cream and Parmesan, simmering until the sauce thickens. Add lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.

Serve: Drizzle the creamy garlic butter sauce over the baked lobster tails and garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes:

For an extra touch, broil the lobster tails for the last 1-2 minutes to achieve a golden top.
