The flavour profile of "pepper salt" (椒鹽) is generally a combination of Chinese five-spice (五香粉), garlic, and chilli. Restaurants first deep-fry the protein (lobster, squid, fish, etc.) then combine it with everything else in a wok.

However, your problem seems to be that there isn't enough flavour in your version, which really doesn't have much to do with whether it's deep-fried or not. You could try:

Simply adding more seasoned salt/garlic/chilli to taste
Marinating your lobster in a combination of Chinese cooking wine, salt, and sugar  for ~30 minutes 
Frying your minced garlic and chilli with five-spice powder for longer, blooming the spices and flavouring the oil 
Before pan-frying, coat your lobster in seasoned cornstarch for flavour and to help it crisp up
