Ingredients:

• 2 lobster tails
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions:

1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
2. Using kitchen scissors, carefully cut the top shell of the lobster tails down the center, stopping just before the tail fin. Gently pull the meat out of the shell and lay it on top.
3. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the minced garlic, parsley, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and remove from heat.
4. Brush the lobster meat with the garlic butter mixture, reserving some for basting while grilling.
5. Place the lobster tails on the grill, meat side up. Grill for about 5-7 minutes, basting occasionally with the reserved garlic butter, until the meat is opaque and cooked through.
6. Remove from the grill and serve immediately with lemon wedges and any remaining garlic butter.
