Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 500°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
- Place the lobster tails shell-side down on a cutting board. Cut along the top shell with kitchen shears, stopping just before the base, and lift the meat out while keeping it attached.
- Mix melted butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, dried pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper in a bowl until blended.
- Brush the garlic butter mixture over the lobster meat, reserving some for later drizzling.
- Broil the lobster tails for 6-8 minutes until the meat is opaque and reaches 140-145°F.
- Serve lobster tails on plates, drizzle with reserved garlic butter, and garnish with more parsley.

Notes
Keep an eye on the broiling process to avoid overcooking. Use a thermometer for best results, aiming for 140-145°F.
