In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, parsley, salt, and pepper.

Brush the lobster meat generously with the garlic butter mixture, ensuring it’s well covered.
5. Bake:
Arrange the lobster tails on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the meat is opaque and tender.

For extra flavor, sprinkle with paprika and serve with additional garlic butter on the side.
