The Perfect Lobster Tail

In my opinion, there a few things more savory than a juicy lobster tail! Here is a quick and easy recipe for your repertoire...

INGREDIENTS

1 whole lobster tail 
1/2 tsp ground paprika
Lemon wedge
Ground white pepper, to taste (or black pepper is fine)
Coarse sea salt, to taste
1/4 cup melted butter








DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat the broiler to 500F
2. Place lobster tail on a baking sheet. With kitchen shears, cut the lobster tail lengthwise. Pull apart the shell slightly, and season the meat with salt, pepper, paprika and 1/8 cup melted butter.
3. Broil lobster tail until lobster meat is opaque, which is approximately 5-7 minutes (depending on the size of your tail). If you are broiling more than one lobster tail, it may take 7-10 minutes.
4. Before serving, drizzle with remaining butter and the juice of one lemon wedge.
