Cooking Recipe Citrus-Buttered Lobster Tails
Recipe Ingredients
Directions
Place frozen lobster tails in a shallow baking dish. Micro-cook,
covered, on 30% power for 7 to 8 minutes or till thawed, rotating
dish a quarter-turn once. The tails are thawed when the shells are
flexible enough to bend. Using a heavy knife, cut through the center
of the top shells. Continue cutting through meat but not through
undersehells. Spread the tails open, butterfly style, so meat is on
top. Return to shallow baking dish. Pour water atop. Micro-cook,
covered, on 50% power for 6 to 8 minutes or just till meat is opaque,
rotating dish a quarter-turn every minute. (Shield cooked meat with
small pieces of foil, if necessary, to prevent overcooking.) Let
stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, combine butter or
margarine, lemon juice, orange peel, salt, ginger and paprika.
Micro-cook, uncovered, on 100% power for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes or till
butter is melted. Mix well. Drizzle lobster tails with butter mixture.
