Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Using scissors, carefully cut down the middle of the lobster tail shell to expose the meat.
- Pat the scallops dry using paper towels and season them with salt and pepper.
Searing Scallops
- In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat.
- Add the scallops, making sure not to overcrowd the pan, and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and opaque.
- Remove scallops from skillet and set aside.
Cooking Lobster
- In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and minced garlic, sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute).
- Add the lobster tail, cut side down, and cook for about 4-6 minutes, basting with garlic butter.
Final Assembly
- Once the lobster is bright red and cooked through, drizzle with lemon juice and return the scallops to the skillet to warm through.
- Toss in some chopped parsley for garnish and added flavor.
Notes
For added sides, serve with garlic bread or a fresh garden salad. If you substitute the lobster, shrimp works well.
