Steps:
- If tails are frozen, thaw them overnight in the fridge, or in a bag submerged in cold water on the counter for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to Broil (500 degrees F or 260 degrees C). Rinse the defrosted lobster shells. Set the oven rack such that lobster tails placed on a baking sheet would be 4 to 5 inches away from the broiler.
- Butterfly the lobster tails. Using kitchen shears, cut down the center of the shell lengthwise, starting from the end opposite the tail fins, continuing down until you reach the tail but without cutting the tail. You want to cut through the top of the shell, but don't cut through the bottom shell. Use your thumbs and fingers to spread open the shell on top, then gently pull the lobster meat upward, separating it away from the bottom shell, leaving the end attached to the tail fin intact. Slightly push together the empty shell underneath and place the row of meat on top. Place the butterflied lobster tail onto the baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, garlic, lemon juice, smoked paprika, and cayenne. Brush the butter mixture over the lobster meat.
- Broil the lobster tails until the meat is opaque and lightly browned, about 1 minute per ounce of individual tail. (For example, broil for 10-ounce lobster tails for 10 minutes.)

- In a small bowl melt butter. Remove from heat and add the garlic, lemon juice, and parsley. Reserve 1/2 of the mixture for dipping.
- Place lobster tails on a baking sheet or in an oven-safe dish. Using kitchen shears cut down the shell down to the fin. Using your fingers, gently pry the meat from the shell, keeping it attached at the base of the tail. Lift the meat so it is resting on top of the split shell.

- Lobster tails usually come whole and not de-shelled. Use kitchen shears to cut the top of the shell right down the center all the way to the fanned tail, then stop. You can also cut the bottom along the same route. Wiggle your fingers around the connective tissues to loosen the meat. Gently pull it up through the incision and set on top of the shell. Setting it on top is not only aesthetically pleasing, it allows the warm air to circulate around the meat to cook evenly. Repeat with remaining tails.
- In a small saucepan, heat clarified butter with lemon juice, lemon zest and hot sauce over very low heat, just enough to keep it in liquid form.
- Place lobster tails on a broiler pan or rimmed baking sheet about 6-9 inches away from the broiler coils while keeping a watchful eye. Broil for approximately 3-4 minutes. Time will vary greatly depending on size of the lobster tail, your oven and distance from the heating mechanism. Lobster tails are done when the meat has turned an opaque white and the shells a brilliant red.

- In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the 1/2 cup of butter, then turn down to a simmer. (You can clarify a larger amount, if desired, and keep it for later, same instructions)
- Set the lobster tails on a cutting board so the rounded "back" of the tail is facing up. With a sharp kitchen shear, cut down the backs of the shells, stopping before you get to the tail. Carefully pull the shell apart. Slide your fingers between the meat and shell and remove the meat, leaving it attached at the tail end. Let the shell go back together and lay the meat to "piggyback" on top of the shell.
