Ingredients

4 servings
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • ½ cup finely chopped parsley
  • 3 –4 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 red chili (deseeded and finely chopped)
  • ¾ tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp coarse salt
  • ½ tsp ground black pepper
  • 3 oz butter
  • 4 lobster tails

Steps

  1. Finely chop the fresh parsley, garlic, and red chili. This ensures a vibrant and flavourful base for your chimichurri.

  2. Combine the chopped ingredients with olive oil, red wine vinegar, and oregano. Stir well to create a consistent sauce.

  3. Allow the chimichurri to sit so the flavors meld together. At least for 10 minutes. For best results, let it sit for more than 2 hours.

  4. melt the butter until the texture is like a cream not fully melted. Add the creamy butter to the chimichurri and mix with a spoon until all the ingredients are combined together.

  5. take the lobsters tails and cut them in half lengthwise. Place them in a oven-safe dish.

  6. Generously brush your chimichurri-infused butter over the lobsters tails.

  7. Preheat your oven to 365°F. Then place your dish with the seasoned lobsters tails. Cook for 10 minutes until the meat is firm and opaque.

  8. Add a couple of tablespoons of your leftover chimichurri butter over your lobster tails to serve.
