Answer 1

Crab and Shrimp Stuffed Lobster Tails

4 x -5 oz. lobster tails, meat only
2 tbl finely sliced green onion
2 tbl minced celery
1 tbl butter (not margarine!)
1 tbl flour
1/4 tsp dry mustard
pinch of cayenne pepper
2/3 cup milk
1 x -6 oz. can crab meat, drained and picked
over for shell (or fresh)
1 x -6 oz. can shrimp, drained, rinsed and diced
(or fresh, cooked)
1/4 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
lemon pepper as needed

Butterfly the lobster meat, to do this, LIGHTLY cut through the underside just to break the shiny membrane. This will prevent the tails from curling when cooked. Turn the tail over and butterfly the top side, cutting in about half way. Spread the meat open and sprinkle the cut edges generously with lemon pepper. Set aside. In a small pan, melt the butter and saute the onion and celery until just tender. Stir in the flour and cook until smooth and bubbly. Add the dry mustard and cayenne pepper. Cook and stir for 1 minute. Add the milk and Worcestershire, cook and stir to thicken the sauce. Remove from the heat and stir in the bread crumbs, crab meat and shrimp.
Fill the butterfly of the lobster tail and grill over medium hot coals with the lid closed for about 12 minutes, or broil in the oven 4" from the heat for about 10 minutes, until they are opaque and the stuffing is just golden crisp. Serve with melted butter with a squeeze of lemon juice and a good dash of garlic.

Answer 4

Baked Stuffed Lobster Tails

4 lobster tails (6-8 ounce each), thawed if frozen
4 tablespoon melted unsalted butter
1 cup soft fresh bread crumbs
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Lemon wedges

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. With scissors, remove the thin shell covering the underside of the tail by cutting along each side. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons melted butter, bread crumbs, tarragon, salt and pepper. Spoon the bread crumb mixture over the lobster tails. Drizzle with the remaining butter. Place the lobster tails in a baking pan. Bake 20 minutes or until the lobster meat is opaque and the crumbs are brown. Serve with lemon wedges.



Broiled Lobster Tails with Lime Butter Sauce

You can use fresh or frozen lobster tails for this recipe.

split: Lobster tails
melted butter or olive oil
freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon lime or lemon juice

Do not remove meat from the shells. Several hours before cooking, marinate lobster tails in melted butter or olive oil or a mixture of the two, allowing 2 to 3 tablespoons of fat for each lobster, plus: freshly ground black pepper and 1 teaspoon lime or lemon juice. Broil until top is crisp and golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Keep basting with the marinade. Serve hot, with the drippings or extra butter and cut limes or lemons, if desired.



Citrus Buttered Lobster Tails

Yield: 2 Servings

16 oz (2) Frozen Lobster Tails
1/2 c Water
1/4 c Butter Or Margaine
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1/2 teaspoon Finely Shredded Orange Peel
1/8 teaspoon Salt
Dash Ground Ginger
Dash Paprika

Place frozen lobster tails in a shallow baking dish. Micro-cook, covered, on 30% power for 7 to 8 minutes or till thawed, rotating dish a quarter-turn once. The tails are thawed when the shells are flexible enough to bend. Using a heavy knife, cut through the center of the top shells. Continue cutting through meat but not through undersehells. Spread the tails open, butterfly style, so meat is on top. Return to shallow baking dish. Pour water atop. Micro-cook, covered, on 50% power for 6 to 8 minutes or just till meat is opaque, rotating dish a quarter-turn every minute. (Shield cooked meat with small pieces of foil, if necessary, to prevent overcooking.) Let stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, combine butter or margarine, lemon juice, orange peel, salt, ginger and paprika. Micro-cook, uncovered, on 100% power for 1-1/2 to 2 minutes or till butter is melted. Mix well. Drizzle lobster tails with butter mixture.



Lobster Tails with Cream Sauce

4 2 to 2-1/2 lb lobsters
4 cloves garlic
1 small onion
1 shallot
2 cups heavy cream
2 slices cooked crumbled bacon
1/2 cup grated Romano cheese
1/2 cup parsley
1/2 cup basil
3 tablespoon lemon juice

Boil lobsters and remove all meat. Reserve tails. Chop knuckle and claw meat. Coat the bottom of a pan with olive oil and sauté the garlic, onion and shallot until it starts to get soft. Add parsley basil and lemon juice. Cook for 2 mins on med heat. Add chopped lobster meat and cream. Simmer for 5 mins. Sprinkle the tails with cheese then pour sauce over tails and crumble bacon bits over the top.



Red Lobster Lobsterchops

6 (4-5 ounce) North American or Maine lobster tails (in the shell)
12 jumbo sea scallops with side muscle removed
1-1/4 cups Lemon-Garlic Butter Sauce (see recipe below)
1 tablespoon McCormick Season-All
6 cups cooked rice (a lightly seasoned pilaf)
4 lemon wedges
1/4 cup parsley, fresh chopped
1/2 cup butter, melted (for dipping)
12 (8-inch) metal skewers

Preheat oven or grill to 450 degrees F. Cut each lobster tail completely in half lengthwise and remove the vein. Gently lift the lobster meat from the shell, leaving meat attached at tail end, and place meat back into shell. (This makes it easier to eat the lobster after it is cooked.) Wrap each lobster tail, including the shell, around one scallop, similar to wrapping bacon around a filet mignon. To skewer, gently pierce the base of the tail fins, passing the skewer through the scallop and piercing through the other end of the tail. Leave approximately 1-2" at the end of the skewer to prevent chop from sliding off during cooking. Lightly brush the topside of each LobsterChop with the Lemon-Garlic Butter. (A light coating will prevent "flare-ups" when grilling.)
Sprinkle the LobsterChops with Season-All , place on a wax-paper lined tray and refrigerate until ready to grill. Place LobsterChops, meat side down, on preheated grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes, rotating LobsterChops 90 degrees after 2 minutes. Turn LobsterChops over and cook for another 4-5 minutes or until the lobster and the scallop have reached an internal temperature of 150 degrees F. Lightly brush the meat side of each LobsterChop with Lemon-Garlic Butter just before removing from the grill. For each plate, place 3 LobsterChops on a bed of your favorite rice accompanied by a small cup of melted butter and a lemon wedge. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.

Lemon-Garlic Butter Sauce
1 pound butter, unsalted (softened)
3 ounces white wine
2 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons garlic, freshly minced
2 teaspoons black pepper, freshly ground
2 tablespoons parsley, fresh chopped

Soften butter and place in a five-quart mixer. Combine wine, lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce. Gradually add wine mixture to butter. Add salt and garlic. Mix well. Add black pepper and chopped parsley. Refrigerate until ready to use.
