Lemon Garlic Lobster Tail with Parmesan Potatoes: A Gourmet Delight
Ingredients with Quantities
Before we begin, let’s review the ingredients needed for the Lemon Garlic Lobster Tail with Parmesan Potatoes. This recipe is designed to serve four people.

For the Lobster Tails:
4 lobster tails
4 tbsp melted butter
2 tbsp lemon juice
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
For the Parmesan Potatoes:
1 lb baby potatoes
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp dried parsley
Optional for Serving:
Lemon wedges (for extra flavor)
Directions and Preparation Method
Step 1: Prepping the Lobster Tails
Lobster tails can be intimidating to prepare if you’ve never handled them before, but with this method, you’ll have beautifully presented lobster meat that’s easy to cook and serve.

Cut the Shell: Using a pair of kitchen scissors, carefully cut down the middle of the top shell of each lobster tail. Start from the front and work your way towards the tail. Be careful not to cut too deep into the meat.
Parmesan Potatoes
The Parmesan potatoes are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, making them the perfect side dish for the rich lobster tails.
Cut the Potatoes: Begin by cutting the baby potatoes in half. Smaller potatoes can be left whole, but halving them ensures they roast evenly.
Season the Potatoes: In a large mixing bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, grated Parmesan cheese, and dried parsley. Make sure the potatoes are evenly coated with the oil and cheese mixture.
Roasting the Parmesan Potatoes
Arrange on a Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet to ensure they roast evenly and turn golden brown.😋❤️☺️😋❤️
