how long to broil lobster tails in oven
Broil the lobster tails. Put the baking pan under the broil and cook the lobster tails for 10-12 minutes. The lobster tails are ready when the flesh is opaque in the middle and the butter has browned. Remove them from the oven. If the flesh still looks a little translucent, the lobster tails aren't ready yet. 2  Broil them for another 2-3 minutes and check again. 3  Don't overcook the lobster-the meat could become a bit rubbery. 4  Be sure to check after 10-12 minutes to see if the lobster is done.
