CREAMY GARLIC BUTTER LOBSTER TAILS

Posted on May 25, 2025 by admin

Here’s a delicious and easy recipe for Creamy Garlic Butter Lobster Tails—perfect for a special dinner or date night!


🦞 Creamy Garlic Butter Lobster Tails Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 2–4 lobster tails (thawed if frozen)

  • 2 tbsp butter (unsalted)

  • 4 garlic cloves (minced)

  • ½ cup heavy cream

  • ¼ cup white wine (optional)

  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

  • ½ tsp paprika

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)


Instructions:

  1. Prep the Lobster Tails:

    • Use kitchen scissors to cut down the top shell of each lobster tail, stopping at the base. Gently pull the meat out and lay it over the shell (but still attached).

    • Season with a pinch of salt, pepper, and paprika.

  2. Sear the Lobster:

    • In a skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter.

    • Place lobster tails meat-side down and sear for about 2–3 minutes until slightly golden. Flip and cook another 2–3 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.

  3. Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce:

    • In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add remaining butter and sauté garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute).

    • Pour in white wine (if using) and simmer for 1–2 minutes to reduce.

    • Add heavy cream and Parmesan. Stir until smooth and creamy.

    • Mix in lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. Finish Lobster in Sauce:

    • Return lobster tails to the skillet. Spoon sauce over them.

    • Cover and simmer on low for another 3–4 minutes until fully cooked and infused with flavor.

  5. Serve:

    • Garnish with chopped parsley and a squeeze of fresh lemon.

    • Serve with crusty bread, mashed potatoes, or pasta to soak up that amazing sauce!
