🦞 WOULD YOU EAT THIS GARLIC BUTTER LOBSTER AND SCALLOPS🍋✨

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the seafood:
    • Pat lobster and scallops dry with paper towels. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  2. Sear the scallops:
    • Heat 1 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Add scallops and sear for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and opaque inside. Remove and set aside.
  3. Cook the lobster:
    • In the same skillet, add 1 tbsp butter.
    • Place lobster tails cut-side down and cook for 4–5 minutes, then flip and cook another 3–4 minutes until the lobster is pink and cooked through.
  4. Make garlic butter sauce:
    • Reduce heat to low, add remaining butter and minced garlic.
    • Cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant, then squeeze in lemon juice and stir.
  5. Combine & serve:
    • Return scallops to the skillet, spooning garlic butter over everything.
    • Garnish with fresh parsley and a pinch of chili flakes if using.
  6. Serve immediately:
    • Pair with crusty bread, rice, or a light salad.

💡 Tips:

  • Don’t overcook scallops—they cook very fast and stay tender.
  • You can add a splash of white wine to the garlic butter sauce for extra depth.
  • For extra indulgence, drizzle a little more butter over the plated lobster and scallops.

If you want, I can also give a one-pan version where lobster, scallops, and garlic butter cook together for an even easier cleanup.

Do you want me to share that version too?
