Ingredients

• 4 pieces lobster tails
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 pieces shallots, finely chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 0.5 cup dry white wine
• 0.75 cup sour cream
• 3 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed
• 12 pieces boiled baby potatoes
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Prepare the lobster tails: Using kitchen scissors, cut through the top shell of each lobster tail lengthwise to expose the lobster meat. Gently lift the meat, keeping it attached at the bottom, and rest it on top of the shell for presentation.

Step 3

Season the lobster tails with a pinch of salt, ground black pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil.

Step 4

Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over medium heat and brush a generous amount onto the lobster meat.

Step 5

Place the lobster tails on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the meat turns opaque and is just cooked through. Remove and keep warm.

Step 6

In a large skillet, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.

Step 7

Add the finely chopped shallots and minced garlic to the skillet, and sauté until softened and aromatic, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Deglaze the skillet with the white wine, stirring to lift any flavorful bits from the bottom of the pan. Allow the wine to reduce by half, approximately 2-3 minutes.

Step 9

Lower the heat and whisk in the sour cream, followed by the fresh dill and lemon juice. Stir the sauce gently until creamy and well combined. Season with another pinch of salt and ground black pepper to taste.

Step 10

Boil the baby potatoes in salted water until fork-tender (about 10-12 minutes) and then drain. Roll the potatoes in a mixture of olive oil, fresh dill, and a sprinkle of salt for flavor.

Step 11

To assemble: Plate each lobster tail alongside 3 boiled baby potatoes. Generously drizzle the creamy dill sauce over the lobster and potatoes. Garnish with additional fresh dill, if desired.

Step 12

Serve immediately with a crisp green salad or steamed asparagus for a complete meal.
