  • 8 small lobster tails - in the shell

Rub for Tails:

  • 4 tbs. Mazola Corn Oil
  • 4 cloves of garlic - grated
  • 1 bunch of fresh cilantro - stems removed and chopped fine
  • 1 tsp. sweet paprika
  • Fresh sea salt

Instructions

  1. Combine all of the ingredients for the rub and form a paste.
  2. Split lobster tails lengthwise with a large knife or kitchen shears.
  3. Gently separate flesh from the shell being careful not to break the shell and brush flesh side of tail with marinade, getting the marinade under the shell.
  4. To prevent the tail from curling during cooking, insert skewers lengthwise through the center of the whole lobster tail.
