Ingredients:
– Fresh lobster tails
– Butter
– Minced garlic
– Fresh parsley
– Lemon juice
– Salt

Instructions:
1. Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking dish by lightly greasing it with olive oil.
2. Carefully split the lobster tails in half lengthwise using a sharp knife, exposing the tender meat.
3. Place the lobster tails in the prepared baking dish, ensuring the meat is facing up.
4. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
5. Remove the butter and garlic mixture from heat and stir in fresh lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and a pinch of paprika for color.
6. Brush the buttery garlic mixture generously over each lobster tail, making sure to coat the meat well.
7. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top for a burst of flavor and color.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the lobster meat is opaque and cooked through.
9. Serve warm with lemon wedges on the side for an extra zing!
