adapted from  :  saveur.com
tried by :   zaralovebaking...




Ingredients :

      8  tbsp  unsalted butter, softened
      2  tbsp  finely chopped parsley
1 1/2  tsp  crushed red chilli flakes
      4  cloves  garlic, finely chopped
Zest of 1  lemon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
      1  live  lobster  (about 1 to 1 1/2 lb) -  (I bought 8 medium lobster)
   1/4  cup  olive oil


Method :

1.  Combine butter, parsley, chilli flakes, garlic, lemon zest, salt and pepper in a bowl; set aside.  Using a cleaver, split lobster in half lengthwise through its head and tail.  Scoop out and discard the yellow-green tomalley and break off claws.
     Transfer lobster halves, shell side down, to a baking sheet; crack claws and place them on the baking sheet.  Drizzle halves and claws with oil and season with salt and pepper.

2.   Heat a charcoal grill or set a gas grill to high; bank coals or turn off burner on one side.  Place lobster halves, flesh side down, and claws on hottest part of grill; cook until slightly charred, 2-3 minutes.  Flip lobster over and using a spoon, spread lobster with the garlic-parsley butter; continue grilling until lobster meat is tender, 3-5 minutes more.
