Instructions
Preheat grill.
In a small mixing bowl whisk together the melted butter, lemon juice, basil, parsley, garlic, and salt. Set aside.
With your kitchen shears, cut straight along the middle of the top of the lobster shell towards the fins of the tail; don’t cut through the fin.
Using your fingers, gently open up the shell. With a knife or kitchen shears, cut halfway through the meat down the center. DO NOT cut all the way through.
Insert a skewer through the lobster, lengthwise.
Lightly brush the lobster flesh with the butter mixture.
Grill, flesh side down, for about 6 minutes, or until lightly charred.
Flip over the lobster; brush with remaining butter and grill for about 4 to 5 more minutes, or until cooked through. Cooked lobster meat should be sturdy and opaque.
Remove from grill. Garnish with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
