Instructions
-
Position a rack in the middle of the oven. Preheat the broiler and line a baking tray with foil.
-
Thaw out lobster tails, if frozen, in a pot of cold water for 30 minutes or more, until fully thawed. Rinse and pat dry with paper towels.
-
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant, then add the white wine.
-
Allow to simmer and let reduce slightly, then add the honey, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
-
Whisk until the honey has melted through the butter and the mixture is well combined. Set aside.
-
Using sharp kitchen shears, cut the top shell & down the centre of the back to the end of the tail leaving the tail fan intact. Remove vein or shell shards, if any.
-
Run a finger between the meat and the shell to loosen it. Spread the meat slightly open.
-
Pull and lift the lobster meat off of the bottom of the shell, being careful not to pull the tail out completely. Place an onion wedge beneath the meat.
-
Place lobster tails, meat side up, on the baking tray. Set aside. Sprinkle each lobster with a pinch of salt and a little pepper
-
Using half of the sauce, pour or brush over each lobster and reserve the remaining sauce for serving.
-
Broil for 12 to 14 minutes or until lobster meat is opaque, and edges are slightly charred.
-
Garnish with parsley and serve immediately with the remaining sauce and lemon slices.
