For 4 people

Cooking for

0.5 cupolive oil
2 tbspred wine vinegar
0.5 cupfinely chopped parsley

1red chili (deseeded and finely chopped)
0.75 tspdried oregano
1 tspcoarse salt
0.5 tspground black pepper
85 gbutter
4lobster tails

Steps

1
Finely chop the fresh parsley, garlic, and red chili. This ensures a vibrant and flavourful base for your chimichurri.
2
Combine the chopped ingredients with olive oil, red wine vinegar, and oregano. Stir well to create a consistent sauce.
3
Allow the chimichurri to sit so the flavors meld together. At least for 10 minutes. For best results, let it sit for more than 2 hours.
4
melt the butter until the texture is like a cream not fully melted. Add the creamy butter to the chimichurri and mix with a spoon until all the ingredients are combined together.
5
take the lobsters tails and cut them in half lengthwise. Place them in a oven-safe dish.
6
Generously brush your chimichurri-infused butter over the lobsters tails.
7
Preheat your oven to 185°C. Then place your dish with the seasoned lobsters tails. Cook for 10 minutes until the meat is firm and opaque.
8
Add a couple of tablespoons of your leftover chimichurri butter over your lobster tails to serve.
