Baked Lobster Tail is a quick and easy way to prepare a lobster dinner. This recipe is straightforward and can easily be followed even by amateur cooks.

Baked Lobster

The secret in making good lobster tail is on the marinade and baking temperature. It is important that the meat is fully exposed so that it can absorb all the marinade. I expose he lobster meat by making a vertical slit from the open end of the tail (biggest end) cutting through until almost the far end of the tail (small end). I then use my hands to open the slit that I created to expose the meat. Gently grab the meat and pull it out of the shell, do not pull the meat out totally. Make sure that it is still connected to the shell. Once the meat is out, you can start brushing your marinade.

Another important thing is the water. I pour water on the tray where the lobster tails sit. Adding water will help maintain the moisture while the lobsters are being baked. As for the sauce, a simple lemon butter sauce is all I need.

Another good lobster recipe that I recommend is grilled lobster tails.

    QUESTION?
    So I followed the recipe, I’m a first timer making lobster at home as I usually hit up Red Lobster.
    I had a hard time pulling the lobster apart a bit to expose the meat once I cut it down the middle. My question is, is there a secret to it or an easier way? I ended up getting a few shell chips in it. I omitted the lemon as I’m allergic but was tasty.
