Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 4 large lobster tails, cleaned
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons dry white wine
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/3 cup parmesan cheese (parmigiano reggiano)
- ¼ cup panko bread crumbs sea salt
Directions
1. In a small sauce pot, add oil, wine, garlic, lemon juice and bring to a low simmer. Do not burn garlic (you want to infuse the oil). Add your chive and lemon zest and remove from heat.
2. In a small bowl, add parmesan, panko bread crumbs and parsley and garlic lemon herb oil and combine.
3. Butter lobster tails by using kitchen shears to cut lengthwise down the center of the hard top shell and meat. You want to cut to, but not through, the bottom of the shells.
4. Press shell halves apart with your fingers and place on sheet tray.
5. Season lobster with sea salt and brush the meat of each with your garlic lemon herb oil.
6. Top with parmesan bread crumbs. Finish with a drizzle of remaining oil on each.
7. Place sheet tray on the bottom rack of oven on a broil. Keep an eye out to prevent burning.
8. Broil for about 10 minutes or until golden brown.
Serve with fresh lemon wedges.
