Answer 2

Frozen Lobster Tails

8 (6 to 8-ounce) frozen lobster tails, defrosted
2 plum tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and finely chopped, about 3/4 cup chopped
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest (zest of 1 lemon)
1 tablespoon minced fresh tarragon leaves
2 teaspoons minced fresh chives
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper

Using a sharp knife, cut each lobster tail lengthwise through the shell into 2 pieces. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to grill the lobsters.
Shortly before grilling the lobsters, in a non-reactive mixing bowl combine the tomatoes, 8 tablespoons of the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, tarragon, chives, salt and pepper and stir to combine.

Preheat a grill to medium-high.

Lightly brush the lobster tails on the cut side with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper. Place the tails, cut side down, on the grill and cook for 3 minutes. Rotate the tails 45 degrees and cook the tails for 3 minutes longer. Rotate the tails 45 degrees again so that the tails are now cut side-up and cook until lobster is just cooked through, 1 to 3 minutes longer. During these last few minutes, spoon some of the vinaigrette over the cut tail meat so that it drizzles down into the lobster shells.

Answer 3

If you're squicky about the whole live lobster thing, start with lobster tails. Steam them for about 20 minutes. In a small saucepan melt a stick of butter with a lot of garlic, the zest of most of a lemon and all the lemon juice from it.

I just did this last week. And save the shells to make seafood stock for chowders and bisque.

Answer 4

If you're cooking a whole lobster, Alton Brown had a segment re same on Food Network. I don't usually refer folks to same for recipes, as I have many TNT of my own, but re recipes, you could use lobster in place of any crab/shrimp recipe of choice.
