Grilled Lobster with Herb Butter Sauce


Instructions

1. Prepare the Lobsters

  • Place live lobsters in the freezer for 15 minutes to numb them humanely.

  • Using a sharp chef’s knife, split each lobster lengthwise from head to tail. Remove the stomach sac and intestinal vein.

  • Pat the meat dry with paper towels.

2. Make the Herb Butter

  • In a small bowl, mix softened butter, garlic, parsley, chives, thyme, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and pepper until well combined.

  • Reserve 2 tablespoons for serving.

3. Grill the Lobsters

  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F / 200°C).

  • Place lobster halves shell side down on the grill. Brush generously with herb butter.

  • Grill for 6–8 minutes, basting occasionally, until meat is opaque and tender. Avoid overcooking.

4. Serve

  • Transfer lobsters to a serving platter. Drizzle with reserved herb butter.

  • Garnish with extra parsley and serve with lemon wedges and a small bowl of melted butter for dipping.
