Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Rinse the lobster tails under cold water, and pat them dry with paper towels.
2
In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
3
Add the red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to the garlic butter sauce, and stir to combine. Bring the sauce to a simmer, and cook for 2-3 minutes, until slightly thickened.
4
Place the lobster tails on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and brush the garlic butter sauce evenly over both tails.

Bake the lobster tails in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, until cooked through. The lobster meat should be opaque and flake easily with a fork.
