Whether you serve them on their own with some lemon & butter or with a filet mignon for the ultimate surf & turf, these Canadian lobster tails bring a touch of class to every meal!

Since its founding in 1986 as a humble mom-and-pop seafood market in Downtown New York just a few blocks from the Fulton Fish Market, Aqua Best has become one of the city’s top sources for some of the highest-quality seafood on earth, beloved by many of its leading chefs and served at world-class restaurants including Le Bernardin, COTE, and Cervo’s.. Aqua Best cuts out the middleman by working directly with local fishermen and contracting boats in order to make sure that all of the seafood they sell is the freshest, highest-quality available, and they control the entire process from boat to market. Seafood doesn’t get any better than this – and it’s shipping nationwide!

To Serve

Boil Method

  • Place frozen lobster tails in the refrigerator overnight to ensure they thaw completely. This ensures a more even cook when boiling and baking.
  • Fill a large pot with enough water to completely cover the lobster tails.
  • Add salt to the water – make it as salty as seawater (about 1-2 tablespoons per quart of water).
  • Bring the water to a rolling boil.
  • Carefully add lobster tails to the boiling water, making sure they’re fully submerged.
  • Boil for 5-6 minutes until the shells turn bright red and the meat becomes opaque. Larger tails might need a bit more time.

Baking Method

  • Place frozen lobster tails in the refrigerator overnight to ensure they thaw completely. This ensures a more even cook when boiling and baking.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Once boiled, remove the lobster tails from the water and transfer them to a baking dish.
  • Split the shells lengthwise with a sharp knife or kitchen shears, exposing the tender lobster meat.
  • Place a small pat of butter on each tail and season as desired (paprika, garlic powder, lemon zest, etc.).
  • Bake for 5-7 minutes or until the meat is fully white and opaque. You can also broil them for the last 1-2 minutes to give the tops a golden finish.

Important Tips

  • Check doneness: The internal temperature should be 140-145°F (60-63°C) for perfectly cooked lobster.
  • Adjust for size: Larger lobster tails may take a little longer to cook, so monitor closely.
  • Serve with melted butter, lemon wedges, and your favorite side dishes (such as garlic bread, steamed vegetables, or rice).

Additional Suggestions

  • If you enjoy extra flavor, try adding some minced garlic, chopped parsley, or a squeeze of lemon directly onto the lobster meat before baking.
  • For an added rich touch, you could brush the lobster tails with garlic butter before baking.
  • Enjoy your delicious lobster tails!
