Simple Lobster Tail

Directions

1. 1
   Boil 4 to 6 cups of water
2. 2
   Add lobster tails to boiling water and reduce heat to simmer
3. 3
   Cook time: Simmer 1 minute per 1oz.
4. 4
   So if your lobster tail is 5oz, leave in for 5 minutes.
5. 5
   (This does not increase by quantity, if you are boiling 4 lobster tails, all at 5oz each, time in water will remain 5 minutes).
6. 6
   As the lobster tails simmer, slice your lemon into 4 slices, and melt your butter in the microwave for 1 minute.
7. 7
   Pull your lobster tails from water and use kitchen shears to cut them long ways.
8. 8
   You just want to cut the shell, you can use a knife to cut the lobster evenly and spread apart for your butterfly effect.
9. 9
   Do not cut all the way to the bottom shell, just a nice gentle slice ontop to spread apart the lobster will work nicely.
