Roasted Lobster Tails with Ginger Dipping Sauce
Yield: 2 servings (serving size: 1 lobster tail and 2 tablespoons dipping sauce)
Ingredients
- Sauce:
- 3/4 teaspoon dry mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon water
- 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon plum sauce
- 1 tablespoon dry sherry
- 3/4 teaspoon minced peeled fresh ginger
-
Lobster: - 2 (8-ounce) frozen lobster tails, thawed
- Cooking spray
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- 1/4 teaspoon dark sesame oil
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Sliced green onions (optional)
Preparation
Preheat oven to 425°.
To prepare sauce, combine mustard and water in a small bowl; stir well with a whisk. Stir in soy sauce, plum sauce, sherry, and ginger; set aside.
To prepare lobster, make a lengthwise cut through the top of each lobster shell using kitchen shears, cutting to, but not through, lobster meat; press shell open. Place the lobster tails, cut sides up, in a shallow roasting pan coated with cooking spray. Combine the oils and pepper, and spoon over the lobster meat.
Bake at 425° for 13 minutes or until the lobster meat turns opaque. Serve lobster with sauce, and garnish with onions, if desired.

This sauce is amazing. I made the entire recipe exactly as written and wouldn't change a thing - except doubling the sauce! I think it would work great with chicken as well.12/23/08

I've always been hesitant to cook my own lobster, but my husband and I tried this recipe for Valentine's Day. It was so easy, and the lobster tasted fantastic! The sauce is great too, although I prefer old fashioned butter for dipping. We'd like to make the sauce to use with chicken sometime. Excellent recipe...will make this again!03/14/08
