Ingredients:

– 4 lobster tails
– 12 scallops
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 4 tbsp unsalted butter
– 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
– 1 tbsp lemon juice
– 1 tsp paprika (optional)
– Salt and pepper to taste

 

Instructions:

1. Begin by preheating a skillet over medium-high heat, allowing it to warm up for a few minutes.
2. While the skillet heats, prepare the lobster tails by cutting them in half lengthwise. Season the meat with salt, pepper, and paprika to enhance the flavors.
3. Once the skillet is hot, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Carefully place the seasoned lobster tails cut side down in the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until the lobster is opaque and cooked through. Remove the lobster from the skillet and set aside.
4. In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
5. Next, add the scallops to the skillet, seasoning them with salt and pepper. Cook the scallops for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brow and cooked through.
6. After the scallops are done, return the cooked lobster to the skillet. Drizzle the mixture with lemon juice and sprinkle with fresh parsley for a burst of flavor.
7. Serve the dish immediately, delighting in the rich garlic butter sauce that coats both the lobster and scallops.
