Lobster in Butter with Parsley and Lemon
Ingredients
- 2 Lobsters
- 40 g Butter
- 2 tsp Parsley (fresh, chopped)
- 1 Lemon (juice)
- 20 ml Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Salt
Instructions
- We start by cooking the lobsters. To do this, we will put a pot with cold water, and introduce the lobsters in it. We put it on the fire (medium-high) and cook for 5 minutes since it starts to boil.
- After this time, remove from the heat and take out the lobsters. Cut them lengthwise, from head to tail, making two halves of each lobster.Put the butter and oil in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat until the butter melts, stirring while it melts so that it mixes well with the oil and does not burn.Once ready, add the parsley.
- With half of the previous mixture, we paint the cut part of the lobster (the inner meat). Sprinkle with lemon juice and a pinch of salt and cook. We have two ways to do it, grilled or baked.
- If you cook on the grill: Once you have the coals ready, put the lobster (meat side down) and cook for 4 minutes. After that time we turn each half and cook for 2 more minutes.If we do it in the oven: With the oven previously preheated to 180ºC, we put the lobsters, meat side up, and roast for 7-10 minutes.
- Once the lobster is ready, just removed from the fire or the oven, we finish spreading the butter on the lobster meat.Now you have a delicious top recipe ready.
