Baked Lobster Savannah Recipes

LOBSTER SAVANNAH

Steps:

• Remove lobster claws and knuckles, crack them open and reserve meat.
• Using heavy kitchen shears, cut a long 1 1/2-inch- wide rectangle out of the top of each lobster body, extending from about 2 inches behind eyes to about 1 inch from tail.
• Keeping body in one piece, carefully pry meat from tail, and set aside.
• In a large skillet, saute pepper and onion in butter; add mushrooms and flour.
• Heat half-and-half separately and add gradually to keep consistency smooth.
• Stir in pimiento, salt and white pepper to taste.
• Cut lobsters in half; remove meat and cut into small pieces.
• Add lobster meat and sherry to sauce and heat through.
• Scoop into lobster shells.
• Top with grated cheese.
• Put under oven broiler for a few minutes to brown.

BAKED LOBSTER TAILS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Cut the lobster tails straight down the middle using kitchen shears. Butterfly the lobster meat by pulling it through the opening and laying the meat on top of the shell. Rinse tails under water; place in an oven-safe baking dish.
• Combine melted butter, garlic powder, and parsley in a bowl. Mix together with a spoon.
• Season lobster tails with seafood seasoning and pour melted butter mixture on top until each tail is completely covered. Squeeze lemon juice over top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until shells are bright red and meat is opaque, 12 to 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the centers should read 140 to 145 degrees F (60 to 63 degrees C).
