2 tablespoons butter
9 shrimp (21 to 25 count or medium-size), peeled, de-veined, and cleaned

4 ounces Key Lime Mix, recipe follows
2 cups cooked long-grain rice

In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add shrimp and lobster and saute until the shrimp turns pink, about 2 to 3 minutes (be careful not to overcook). Add the mushrooms and scallions, and saute until just tender, about 2 minutes. Add the Chablis and Key Lime Mix and continue cooking until Key Lime Mix melts and is thoroughly mixed throughout the seafood. Serve over rice.

Key Lime Mix:
8 ounces garlic spread (2 sticks of butter mixed with 1 tablespoon minced garlic)
2 tablespoons Louisiana-style hot sauce

In a small bowl, mix all ingredients together.

Answer 4

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 half and half
1 x -6 oz. fresh crab meat, (canned if necessary drained and picked over for shell)
2 oz imitation crabmeat (gives color omit if you prefer)
1 x -6 oz. fresh small shrimp diced (or can shrimp, drained, rinsed and diced)
1/4 cup fine dry Italian seasoned 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 half & half 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.

Serve with a vegetable side dish such as steamed asparagas or steamed broccoli (nothing fancy to detract from the lobster)
and a baked potato & salad, my choice is caesar.
