Grilled Pacific Spiny Lobster
4 Servings
Ingredients
4 Pacific spiny lobsters, 1 1/2 pounds each
4 tablespoons olive oil
4 tablespoons fresh chopped garlic
1 pound unsalted butter, cut into 24 cubes
4 ounces fresh herbs (we recommend Italian parsley, basil, tarragon, and rosemary)
4 tablespoons lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste
Method
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees and the grill to high heat
  • Butterfly the lobsters by splitting from head to tail, but leave the underneath still attached. Clean all intestines and other matter from the head, then rinse lightly under cool water.
  • Brush the lobster meat with olve oil and garlic, then season with salt and pepper
  • Place lobsters, meat side down, on the hot grill for approximately 5 minutes, turning halfway through for grill marking and even cooking.
  • Remove lobsters from the grill and place on a sheet pan meat side up. Brush again with a little oil and garlic, and sprinkle with your herb mixture. Place 3 pats of butter on each lobster tail, and place in the oven for approximately 10 minutes.
  • Serve with hot melted butter and the fresh lemon juice.
