Crab Meat Stuffing Red Lobster Recipe 295

CRAB-STUFFED LOBSTER TAIL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Pull the edges of the split lobster shells apart and gently lift the tail meat to rest above the shells. Place the prepared lobster tails on a baking sheet.
• Brush each portion of tail meat with 1 teaspoon melted butter.
• Lightly mix the crushed crackers, crabmeat, 1/4 cup of clarified butter, parsley, seafood seasoning, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and white pepper in a bowl until thoroughly combined.
• Spoon half the stuffing onto each lobster tail; press lightly to slightly shape the stuffing so it doesn't fall off.
• Bake the lobster tails in the preheated oven until the meat is opaque and the stuffing is golden brown on top, 10 to 12 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the lobster tail should read 145 degrees F (65 degrees C).

ALL PURPOSE CRAB STUFFING

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in a bowl.
• For stuffed shrimp -- butterfly them and put one tbsp of mixture on top and bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes. Use the biggest shrimp you can find!
• For mussels -- place one tbsp of mixture on top of mussels and bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes. (I buy a two pound frozen bag of New Zealand Mussels on the half shell from Fiesta Market. Just thaw -- top with some stuffing mixture and bake. Delicious!).
• Makes enough for generously stuffing 20 large shrimp or 2 lbs of mussels on the half shell.
• Sometimes I will drizzle melted butter over each stuffed mussel or shrimp but do so very very lightly. I will melt butter in the micro and then using a 1/8 tsp measuring spoon pour on each shrimp/mussel. Too much butter and it will become too rich.
• Lightly sprinkle paprika over all.
• I love this.

• Fan the tail and bend it upwards till you hear a little snap, this will help keep the fanned tail in place.
• Push both sections of the shell together and place the split lobster on top of the shell.
• Spoon some of the butter over top of the lobster, place in a baking pan and into 350 degree oven.
• Allow lobster to bake for 5 minutes so that the area you are stuffing will get partially cooked.
• Remove lobster from oven after the partial cooking and dividing the crab imperial mixture into two portions, stuff the top of the lobster tail, making a mound with the crab imperial.
• Return lobster to the oven and continue baking for 15-20 minutes until topping has a nice golden color.
• Remove Stuffed Lobster from the oven and spoon just a little bit more of the butter on the stuffed lobster.
• Serve with your favorite side dish, and after presenting the dish to the table, gently remove the stuffed lobster completely from the shell and return to the plate.
