Indulge in the rich flavors of buttered lobster mingling with perfectly cooked pasta for a touch of luxury.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb lobster, cooked and meat removed
  • 12 oz spaghetti
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 shallots, finely chopped
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • Fresh parsley, chopped
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Start by removing the head from the tail of the lobster. Peel the shell to retrieve the meat and slice it into large pieces.
  2. Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil and boil the lobster head.
  3. In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt olive oil and butter. Add the lobster tail shell to cook until red, then discard the shell and add lobster meat, cooking until opaque.
  4. Add shallots and garlic to the pan, sauté for 2 minutes, then deglaze with white wine and cook until mostly absorbed.
  5. Add cherry tomatoes and cook until they burst and become jammy, around 10-15 minutes.
  6. Remove the lobster head and add pasta to the boiling water, cooking and draining 2 minutes before the suggested time. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water.
  7. Add cooked pasta to the sauce with a splash of reserved pasta water and stir until glossy. Finally, add lobster meat just to reheat, finishing with parsley and lemon juice. Serve immediately.

Notes

For a lighter version, use zucchini noodles instead of traditional pasta. Reserve pasta water for sauce consistency.
