What You'll Need:
Before we get started, let's make sure we have all the necessary ingredients and equipment:
- 4-6 lobster tails
- 1 cup of water
- 1 tablespoon of salt
- 1 tablespoon of butter
- 1 lemon
- Power Pressure Cooker XL
Preparing the Lobster Tails
Before cooking the lobster tails, we need to prepare them properly. Start by using kitchen shears to cut through the top of the shell down the middle, stopping at the base of the tail. Next, use your fingers to gently pull the shell apart, exposing the meat. Carefully remove the meat from the shell, keeping it attached at the base, and lay it on top of the shell. Repeat with the remaining lobster tails.
Cooking the Lobster Tails
Now that the lobster tails are prepared, it's time to cook them. Add one cup of water to the Power Pressure Cooker XL, followed by one tablespoon of salt and one tablespoon of butter. Place the lobster tails on the trivet inside the cooker, making sure they are not touching each other. Squeeze the juice from one lemon over the lobster tails.
Close the lid and set the pressure release valve to the "sealing" position. Set the cooker to "high pressure" for 3-4 minutes, depending on the size of the lobster tails. Once the cooking cycle is complete, use the quick-release method to release the pressure from the cooker. Carefully remove the lobster tails from the cooker using tongs or a slotted spoon.
Serving the Lobster Tails
Now that the lobster tails are cooked, it's time to serve them up. You can garnish them with chopped parsley or serve them with melted butter for dipping. Lobster tails are also great served with a side of garlic butter pasta or a fresh salad.
