Ingredients

• 2 fresh lobster tails
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 lime
• 1 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
• 8 corn tortillas
• 1 avocado, sliced
• 1 cup red cabbage, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
• 0.25 cup red onion, finely chopped
• 1 fresh tomato, diced
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon optional hot sauce

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Rinse the lobster tails under cold water, then dry them with a paper towel.

Step 3

Using kitchen shears, cut through the top of the lobster shell lengthwise to expose the flesh.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix olive oil, juice of half a lime, Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper to make a marinade.

Step 5

Brush the marinade generously over the exposed lobster flesh.

Step 6

Place the lobster tails flesh-side down on the grill. Cook for about 5 minutes, then flip and cook another 3-5 minutes or until the lobster meat is opaque and cooked through.

Step 7

Remove the lobster from the grill and let it cool slightly. Then, use a fork to remove the meat from the shells and chop into bite-sized pieces.

Step 8

Warm the corn tortillas on the grill or in a pan for about 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable.

Step 9

To assemble the tacos, place equal portions of lobster meat in each tortilla.

Step 10

Top with sliced avocado, red cabbage, red onion, and diced tomatoes.

Step 11

Squeeze fresh lime juice over each taco and garnish with chopped cilantro.

Step 12

Drizzle hot sauce over the top if desired.

Step 13

Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious soy-free lobster tacos.
