• 2 fresh lobsters (approx.1.5 lbs / 680g each)
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• Lemon wedges, for serving
• Chill the lobsters in the freezer for about 20-30 minutes to numb them, which makes their handling quite easy.
Place the lobster on a cutting board, belly side up. Take a sharp knife and make a deep cut lengthwise down the center of the shell, from head to tail. Do not cut all the way through; leave the two halves connected.
• Open the lobster up and take out the tomalley - the greenish material - and the black digestive tract.
• Kitchen shears can be used to slightly crack the harder parts of the shell to expose more meat for better cooking and easier eating.
In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper.
• Preheat your oven to 200°C/400°F.
• Put the prepared lobsters on a baking sheet, meat side up.
Spoon half of the butter sauce over the lobster meat evenly.
• Bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the lobster meat is opaque and white. Cooking time will vary depending on the size of the lobster and your oven.
• Take the baked lobsters out of the oven.
• Drizzle the remaining butter sauce over the cooked lobster meat.
• Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
