Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Lobster Tacos with Avocado and Cheese.
Step 1
Start by preheating a lightly oiled grill pan over medium-high heat, setting the stage for a delicious meal.
Step 2
While the pan warms up, take your lobster tails and slice them in half lengthwise along the spine.
Step 3
Give them a sprinkle of salt and black pepper to enhance their natural flavors.
Step 4
Once your grill pan is hot, place the lobster tails on it and grill for about five minutes.
Step 5
You’ll know they’re ready when they’re slightly charred and the shells have turned a vibrant color.
Step 6
Carefully remove the lobster meat from the shells and chop it into bite-sized pieces.
Step 7
In a large bowl, mix together the red guajillo chile sauce, half of the diced tomato, and chopped green onions.
Step 8
Gently fold in the chopped lobster meat until everything is well combined, creating a flavorful filling.
Step 9
Now, grab your tortillas and evenly distribute the shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese on each one.
Step 10
Top each tortilla with a generous portion of the lobster mixture, then fold them over, cradling all that goodness inside.
Step 11
Return the tacos to the grill and cook for about one minute on each side, just until the cheese melts and the tortillas develop a lovely char.
Step 12
When they’re ready, serve your tacos hot, garnished with the remaining diced tomato, slices of creamy avocado, and a sprinkle of fresh shredded lettuce.
Step 13
Enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures in every bite!.
