These spicy lobster tails are so easy to make. Just a note on the lobster tails in supermarkets: if they're not frozen, they've been frozen and then thawed. So, bypass the 'fresh' for the frozen, which are fresher.

Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Mix mayonnaise, tarragon, sriracha sauce, paprika, lemon juice, cayenne pepper, and salt together in a bowl.
Step 2
Preheat oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Set oven rack about 8 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
Step 3
Loosen lobster meat from the shell, leaving it attached near the tip of the tail. Place tails on a baking sheet lined with crinkled aluminum foil to help keep them in place.
Step 4
Spoon some of the mayonnaise mixture beneath the lobster meat and spread a generous amount on top.
Step 5
Broil in the preheated oven until lobster tails are browned and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.
