Instructions

Creating Grilled Lobster and Shrimp with Garlic Butter is straightforward. Follow these simple steps to make an incredible dish:

1. Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat, about 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Lobster: Using kitchen scissors, cut the top of the lobster shell down the center, leaving the tail intact. Gently pull apart the shell to expose the meat.
3. Season the Lobster and Shrimp: In a bowl, combine melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, parsley, paprika, salt, and pepper. Brush half of this mixture onto the lobster tails and shrimp.
4. Marinate: Let the lobster and shrimp marinate for 15-30 minutes for enhanced flavor.
5. Grill the Lobster: Place the lobster tails shell-side down on the grill. Grill for about 5-7 minutes, or until the meat is opaque and cooked through.
6. Grill the Shrimp: Add the shrimp to the grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque.
7. Brush with Garlic Butter: During the last minute of grilling, brush the remaining garlic butter mixture over the lobster and shrimp for extra flavor.
8. Remove from Grill: Once cooked, remove the lobster and shrimp from the grill and place them on a serving platter.
9. Garnish: Garnish with additional parsley and lemon wedges for a pop of color and freshness.
10. Serve Hot: Enjoy immediately while hot and juicy.
