How to Make Scallion Butter

  1. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat.
  2. Add the minced scallions and garlic powder. Cook, stirring frequently, until the scallions are softened, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Stir in the lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Keep warm.
  4. Butterfly your lobster tails by cutting lengthwise through the top of the shell and meat, but leave the bottom shell intact. Gently press the halves open.
  5. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  6. Place the lobster tails on the grill and baste generously with the scallion butter.
  7. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the lobster is cooked through and opaque. Baste with butter halfway through.
  8. Remove from grill and serve immediately with the remaining scallion butter as a dipping sauce.
