Petite lobster tails ?

[RumpleMom]

How do I cook petite lobster tails?

I want to serve these small lobster tails this evening with melted butter. Can you help? Thanks

I ended up putting them under the broiler for 5 minutes. They were a little over cooked, but once they were dipped in the butter they were yummy.

I know this is a bit late but I make petite lobster tails by either steaming or grilling. Friends make them in the microwave and rave about them always coming out perfect (I do not know the instructions though). To grill them you must first use kitchen shears to cut off the bottom shell and then score the meat lengthwise to prevent curling on the grill. Grill top shell down and baste then flip. I baste them with a mix of butter, worchestershire, S&P. They come out very well and you can monitor them for doneness easier to avoid over cooking.

I know this is really late but you can use this info for another time.
Cut a large slit in the shell of the tail (Dont break shell off you still need it) Pull the meat out then with the shell close it back together and lay the meat on top of it. Broil for about 5-8 minutes. The meat will be white when it is done. I cook these all the time and work out great.
