Instructions<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

For the Lobster:<\/p>\n

Prepare the Lobster Tails: Using kitchen shears, carefully cut through the top of each lobster tail shell lengthwise. Gently pull the lobster meat out, keeping it attached at the base, and rest it on top of the shell.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Make Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and pepper. Brush the garlic butter mixture generously over the lobster tails.<\/p>\n

Broil the Lobster: Preheat your oven\u2019s broiler. Place the lobster tails on a baking sheet and broil for 8-10 minutes, or until the lobster meat is opaque and cooked through. Baste with more garlic butter halfway through. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

For the Scallops<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Sear the Scallops: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the scallops with salt and pepper. Sear the scallops for 2-3 minutes per side until they are golden brown and slightly firm to the touch. Remove the scallops from the skillet and set aside.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Make Garlic Butter for Scallops: In the same skillet, melt the butter and add the minced garlic. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant, then return the scallops to the pan and coat them in the garlic butter.<\/p>\n

Serve<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Plate the Dish: Serve the garlic butter lobster tails and scallops together, garnished with fresh parsley and a drizzle of the garlic butter from the skillet. Pair with a side of lemon wedges for extra zest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
