Ingredients

  • 2 large Lobster tails
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 large Avocado
  • 0.25 cup Cilantro
  • 1 small Tomato
  • 0.5 cup Sour cream
  • 1 whole Lime

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Place the lobster tails in a large pot of boiling water and cook for about 5-6 minutes until the shells are bright red. Remove them and let them cool slightly before removing the meat. Chop the lobster meat into bite-sized pieces.

Step 3

In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Mince the garlic and sauté in the butter until fragrant. Add the lobster meat, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 4

To make the taco shells, place small mounds (about 1/4 cup) of shredded cheddar cheese onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced a few inches apart. Flatten them gently with a spoon. Bake in the oven for about 5-7 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Remove the cheese circles and drape them over the side of a bowl or other round object to form a taco shell. Let them cool and harden.

Step 5

Dice the avocado and tomato. Chop the cilantro. In a small bowl, mix the avocado, tomato, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice. Stir well to combine.

Step 6

Assemble the tacos by placing a portion of the lobster mixture into each cheese shell, then top with the avocado-tomato salsa. Add a dollop of sour cream and garnish with extra cilantro if desired.

Step 7

Serve fresh and enjoy your Keto Lobster Tacos!
