🍴 Decadent Creamy Garlic Butter Lobster Tails 🦞 🍽️ A family favorite for special dinners, perfect for creating unforgettable moments together! 🍽️ 🍽️ Ingredients 🍽️ - 1/4 cup unsalted butter - 1 tsp Dijon mustard - 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese - 1/2 tsp paprika - 1/2 cup heavy cream - 1 tsp fresh lemon juice - 3 garlic cloves, minced - 4 lobster tails (6-8 oz each) - Fresh parsley, chopped - Salt and black pepper, to taste 🧑‍🍳 Directions 🧑‍🍳 1. Preheat to perfection: Set your oven to 375°F. Using kitchen shears, cut the lobster tails lengthwise. Season them generously with salt, black pepper, and paprika. 2. Whip up the aromatic sauce: In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Stir in the heavy cream, grated Parmesan, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. Cook the mixture until it thickens slightly, then season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. 3. Bake the lobster: Place your prepared lobster tails on a baking sheet. Generously spoon the creamy garlic butter sauce over each tail. Bake in the oven for 12–15 minutes until the lobster meat turns opaque and tender. 4. Broil for a golden touch: Switch your oven to the broil setting and broil the lobster tails for an additional 2–3 minutes, allowing the tops to develop a golden-brown color. 5. Garnish and serve: Drizzle each tail with any remaining sauce from the pan, then sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top. Serve immediately with lemon wedges for that zingy freshness. 🍎 Nutritional Information 🍎 Approximate per serving: - Calories: 400 - Protein: 25g - Fats: 30g - Carbohydrates: 3g - Fiber: 0g - Cholesterol: 160mg 💡 Tips and Tricks 💡 - Serve this dish alongside fluffy mashed potatoes or freshly sautéed asparagus for a complete meal. - To make it extra luxurious, consider pairing it with a crisp white wine like Sauvignon Blanc. - Use fresh and high-quality lobster tails for the best flavor. ⏳ Preparation time 🍰 Preparation time: 15 minutes | Cooking time: 15 minutes | Serving: 4
