• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Prepare the lobsters by splitting them lengthwise down the center using a sharp knife. Remove the tomalley and set it aside if desired. Clean the cavity but leave the lobster meat intact.

Step 3

Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed garlic, breadcrumbs, crushed Ritz crackers, parsley, lemon juice, white wine, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the stuffing mixture.

Step 5

Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and set aside for brushing.

Step 6

Place the prepared lobsters on a baking sheet, shell side down, and gently stuff the cavities with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing it lightly to keep it in place.

Step 7

Brush the exposed lobster meat and the stuffing with the melted butter.

Step 8

Bake the stuffed lobsters in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes until the stuffing is golden brown and the lobster meat is cooked through.

Step 9

Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for a bright finish.
