Prep the seafood: Pat the lobster and scallops dry. Season with salt and pepper.
Sear the scallops: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add scallops and sear 1½–2 minutes per side, until golden. Remove and set aside.
Cook the lobster: In the same pan, add 2 tbsp butter. Place lobster tails flesh-side down and sear for 2–3 minutes, until lightly golden. Flip, cover, and cook another 3 minutes until opaque and cooked through.
Make the garlic butter sauce: Add remaining 2 tbsp butter to the pan along with minced garlic. Cook 30 seconds, then stir in lemon juice and zest.
Combine: Return scallops to the skillet, spoon garlic butter sauce over everything, and cook 1 minute just to warm through.
Serve immediately with extra sauce drizzled on top and sprinkle with parsley.
🍋 Serving Ideas
Serve over buttery mashed potatoes, pasta, or rice pilaf.
Add a side of steamed asparagus or garlic bread to soak up that sauce.
