Here’s a recipe for a delicious and mouth-watering Lobster Dinner:
Ingredients:
2 live lobsters (1 to 1 1/2 pounds each)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon paprika
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/4 cup white wine
1/4 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions:
Fill a large pot with enough water to fully submerge the lobsters. Bring the water to a boil, then add the live lobsters and cook for 8-10 minutes or until the shells are bright red.
Remove the lobsters from the pot and let them cool slightly. Use a sharp knife or kitchen shears to cut the shell down the center of the back, starting from the head and ending at the tail.
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, red pepper flakes, and paprika and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently.
Add the lobster to the skillet, flesh side down, and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the flesh is slightly browned. Flip the lobster over and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Season the lobster with salt and black pepper to taste. Add the white wine and chicken broth to the skillet and bring to a simmer.
Let the liquid reduce by half, then add the heavy cream and stir to combine. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
Transfer the lobster to a serving dish and pour the sauce over the top. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
Enjoy your delicious and mouth-watering Lobster Dinner!
