Ingredients
For Lobster Tails & Garlic Butter:
20 oz (2) lobster tails
1/2 cup butter
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 heads garlic
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 onion
Fresh parsley for topping
For Scallops & Lemon Orzo:
8 scallops
2 tablespoons garlic butter
1 cup orzo
1 cup seafood stock
1/2 cup white wine
4 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
4 tablespoons lemon juice
Salt & pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for topping
Lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
Prepare the Garlic and Onion: Preheat the oven to 400°F. Cut off about 1/2 inch from the top of each head of garlic to expose the cloves. Remove any loose papery skin.
Drizzle each head with one tablespoon of olive oil and wrap loosely in foil. Place on a baking sheet.
Roast the Onion: Cut the onion into wedges, leaving the base intact so that it holds together. Wrap in foil with a drizzle of olive oil and place on the baking sheet with the garlic.
Bake for 40 minutes to an hour, until the garlic cloves are soft and browned, and the onion is translucent and tender.
