1 Tbsp. Ancho Chili Powder (optional)
1 tsp. Honey (optional)
1/2 Tbsp. Olive Oil
2 Lobster Tails, thawed
2 ounces Butter or Ghee
4 cloves Garlic, minced
Pepper
Salt
Prepare the lobster tails by patting them dry and laying them flat on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife and starting from the flippers, cut each in half lengthwise. Pat the exposed meat dry.
Melt the butter or ghee in a large sauté pan over medium flame. Add the garlic, ancho chili and honey (if using) and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the lobster tails, flesh side down, and cook for 3 minutes. Gently flip the tails onto their shells and spoon the garlic butter over each. Continue basting for another 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Divide the lobster tails and corn among 2 plates.
