Garlic Butter Lobster and Scallops

Ingredients:

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

Instructions:

1. Begin by preheating a skillet over medium-high heat. This ensures a nice sear on your seafood.
2. Carefully cut the lobster tails in half lengthwise, then season the meat with salt, pepper, and paprika for an added kick of flavor.
3. In the hot skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter, then add the seasoned lobster. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until the lobster is opaque and perfectly cooked. Once done, remove the lobster from the skillet and set aside.
4. In the same skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
5. Now, add the scallops to the skillet, seasoning them with salt and pepper. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until they’re golden brown and just cooked through.
6. Return the lobster to the skillet with the scallops, drizzle the mixture with fresh lemon juice, and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Toss gently to combine and warm through.
7. Serve this luxurious dish immediately, and enjoy every bite of your seafood paradise!
