Ingredients

  • 4 x 500g cooked lobsters
  • 2 tbsp Australian extra virgin olive oil
  • Coriander sprigs, to serve
  • Lime wedges, to serve
  • 150g butter, cubed, at room temperature
  • 1/3 cup coriander leaves, chopped
  • 1/4 tsp ground paprika
  • Juice & finely grated zest of 1 lime
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed

Steps

  1. To make the lime & coriander butter, place all the ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth.
  2. Lay a piece of baking paper on a chopping board and spoon butter mixture onto the centre. Use the paper to shape into a log, then roll up to enclose and twist the ends to seal. Chill until required, then unroll and gently cut into 1cm-thick slices.
  3. Lay each lobster on its back on a chopping board and halve lengthways with a large, sharp knife. Pat insides of lobsters with paper towel.
  4. Preheat a barbecue grill or chargrill pan on high. Brush cut sides of lobster with oil. Season. Cook, cut-side down, for 1-2 mins or until lightly browned. Turn and top each lobster half with slices of butter mixture. Cook, shell-side down, for 1-2 mins or until heated through. Serve with coriander, lime wedges and extra butter, if desired.
