Equipment

  • 1 air fryer

Ingredients

  • 2 lobster tails 4 to 6 ounces
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic chopped
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped dill

Instructions

  • Wash the lobster tails and use scissors to make cuts on top. Take the tail out and place it on top of the shell.
  • Mix together the melted butter, garlic, pepper and salt. Brush some of the mixture on the two lobster tails, reserving a little for serving.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 350 F. Place tails in a basket. Air fry the lobster tails for 10 to 12 minutes.

Notes

You can easily swap fresh parsley or basil for the dill.
