Ingredients
- 4 pieces Lobster tails
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Dairy-free margarine or plant-based butter
- 1 tablespoon Chives, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Step 2
Carefully cut the lobster tails in half lengthwise using kitchen shears or a sharp knife. Gently lift the meat to rest on the top of the shell for easy grilling.
Step 3
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Brush the mixture generously over the lobster meat.
Step 4
In a separate small saucepan, melt the dairy-free margarine or plant-based butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in parsley, lemon juice, lemon zest, and chives, then remove from heat.
Step 5
Place the lobster tails, shell side down, onto the preheated grill. Cover and cook for 10-12 minutes or until the lobster meat is opaque and firm. Baste occasionally with the melted garlic herb mixture.
Step 6
Remove the lobster tails from the grill and drizzle with any remaining garlic herb butter.
Step 7
Serve immediately with additional lemon wedges on the side, if desired.
