Citrus-Buttered Lobster - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 frozen Lobster tails (6 to 8-oz each)
    1/4 c. butter or margarine, melted
    2 tsp. lemon juice
    1/2 tsp. grated orange peel
    1/4 tsp. salt
    Dash ground ginger
    Dash paprika
    Lemon wedges
Preparation
    With a sharp, heavy knife, cut down through center of hard top shell of partially thawed lobster tails.
    Cut through meat, but not through under shell.
    Spread open, butterfly-style, so lobster meat is on top.
    Place tails on broiler pan, shell side down.
    Combine melted butter, lemon juice, orange peel, salt, ginger and paprika. Brush over meat.
    Broil 4 inches from heat till meat loses its translucency and can be flaked easily when tested with a fork, about 17 to 20 minutes.
    Loosen meat from shell by inserting fork between shell and meat.
    Serve with lemon wedges.
