Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Whisk the all the ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl and set aside.

    Step 2

    Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Separate the claws from the body of the lobster.

    Step 3

    Boil the body and tail section for 3 minutes and the claws for 5 minutes. Transfer the lobster to a bowl with ice water. Shell the lobster, transferring the meat to a tray.

    Step 4

    Prepare a charcoal grill. Gently season the lobster with salt. Grill the lobster for only 1-2 minutes, just until the edges are slightly charred. Transfer to a tray or plate and let cool.

    Step 5

    Slice the lobster tail into pieces. Place all the lobster meat on a serving plate and drizzle with the reserved sauce. Garnish with extra lime zest and freshly ground pepper.
