Savor the taste of the ocean with this quick and easy Butterflied Garlic Crayfish recipe! Fresh Western Rock Lobster meets buttery garlic and a hint of chilli for a truly unforgettable seafood experience. Discover how to cook this Australian delicacy in minutes.
Allow the butter to soften. Add the garlic, chili crisp and onion. Mix well.
Remove the crayfish tail from the head by holding each end with both hands and twisting to pull the cray tail free from the head. Give the end of a tail a quick wash to get rid of the 'mustard'. Using a large knife, cut through the top of the shell longways and split the cray apart to butterfly it. Remove the digestion track that runs through the flesh.
Using a spoon, smear the butter mix liberally over the entire crayfish tail.
Heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the crayfish tail shell side down and allow to cook for 2 minutes. Flip the crayfish and sear the top for 2-3 minutes until the top has browned nicely. Remember, the crayfish is already cooked, so you're just trying to get the heat through it and sear the top. Remove from pan, top with cilantro (coriander) leaves and serve immediately. Enjoy!
