1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley
3/4 cup dry white wine

method
1. Brush lobster tails lightly with oil, place under a medium grill and cook 1 minute each side, just long enough for shells to turn red.
2. Remove and when cool enough to handle, cut through each side of the soft shell on the underside of the tails.
3. Remove this and carefully lift out meat in one piece.
4. Keep hard tail shells aside.
5. Slice meat into 1 cm (1/2 inch) medallions (i.e. round slices).
6. Heat butter over moderate heat until foaming, add spring onions and cook 1 minute.
7. Add lobster medallions and saute gently on each side until flesh turns white, about 4 to 5 minutes in all. Do not overcook.
8. Lift out and arrange in reserved tail shells. Keep warm.
9. Add wine to pan with parsley, thyme, salt and a good grind of pepper.
10. Boil briskly until reduced by one-third and spoon sauce over medallions.
11. Serve immediately.
