First time to make Lobster Tail. I boiled the Lobster Tails for at least 3 minutes with Water, Salt, Butter, and Old Bay Rub (Seafood Seasoning Powder). After training, I rubbed on some Butter on the Lobster Tail, sprinkled some more Old Bay Rub, and squeezed some lemon juice on it. Paired it with Garlic Noodles and Asparagus.
