Ingredients

4 lobster tails
salt and pepper
1/4 cup butter melted
3 garlic cloves minced
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon thyme minced
1 teaspoon rosemary minced
1 teaspoon parsley chopped

Instructions

Preheat the oven to broil or 500 degrees. Start by preparing the lobster. Using kitchen shears butterfly the tail by cutting down the center. Loosen the meat and pull the lobster meat upward. Salt and pepper the meat and set on a baking sheet.
In a small bowl whisk together the melted butter, garlic, paprika, thyme, rosemary, and parsley. Spread evenly on each lobster tail.
Broil the lobster tails for about 8-10 minutes or until the meat is opaque and lightly brown on the top. Serve with melted butter if desired.
