Preparing The Lobster For The Grilled Mediterranean Lobster Salad
1. Parboil the lobster tails (in salted water!), extract the meat from the shells and then marinade them for at least an hour in the refrigerator.
2. Preheat the grill to 500F.
3. Grill both sides of the tails for 2-3 minutes to achieve a nice caramelized color. Refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to cool.
Making The Grilled Mediterranean Lobster Salad
