Instructions

1
Position an oven rack about 6 inches from the broiler element and preheat the broiler to high. Line a baking sheet with foil.
2
Using kitchen shears, cut straight down the center of the top shell of each lobster tail from the open end to just before the tail fan. Use your thumbs to gently spread the shell apart and lift the meat up and over the shell, resting it on top while keeping it attached at the base — this is the butterfly cut that exposes the meat for even broiling.
