To humanely kill the lobster, place it in a freezer for 15-20 minutes or until it is no longer moving.
Use a sharp knife to split the lobster tail in half lengthwise. Be careful not to cut all the way through the tail, as you want to leave the two halves attached.
Remove the lobster meat from the shell and chop it into small pieces.
In a large bowl, combine the lobster meat, bread crumbs, butter, mayonnaise, celery, onion, and parsley.
Season the stuffing with salt, pepper, and paprika.
Stuff the lobster tails with the stuffing and place them in a baking dish.
Bake the lobster tails at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or until the lobster meat is cooked through.
Serve the lobster tails with melted butter, lemon wedges, and your favorite sides.
