Creamy Lobster Sauce Recipes

LOBSTER MORNAY SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Slowly cook and stir mushrooms in the butter until tender. Mix in lobster meat. Cook until opaque. Remove mushrooms and lobster from saucepan and set aside.
• Reduce heat to low. Place flour in pan. Cook and stir approximately 2 minutes, then stir in chicken broth, heavy cream and pepper. Simmer 5 to 10 minutes, or until thickened.
• Stir mushrooms, lobster and Parmesan cheese into the sauce mixture. Continue cooking 5 minutes.

CREAMY LOBSTER LINGUINE

Steps:

• Heat a large straight-sided skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and bacon and cook until the bacon is beginning to crisp, 8 minutes. Add the shallots, garlic and red pepper flakes and cook for an additional 3 minutes, until fragrant. Add the salt, tomato puree and cream; stir to combine. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the linguine for 1 minute less than the package instructions, about 10 minutes. Using tongs, remove the pasta from the water and add it directly to the pan with the sauce. Sprinkle the cheese directly on the naked pasta and toss to coat in sauce. Add up to 1 cup of the pasta water to loosen the sauce as needed. Stir in the arugula, basil, tarragon, peas and lobster meat; simmer until everything is heated through, 1 minute. Serve with additional Parmesan if desired.

LOBSTER SAUCE

Steps:

• In a hot pan, cook the lobster shells and peppercorns in olive oil until well browned. Add the onion, carrot, and celery and cook until lightly caramelized.
• Add the tomato paste and cook a few more minutes, being careful not to add any more color to the tomato paste. Deglaze with brandy and reduce by 1/2.
• Add paprika, cayenne, roux, star anise, lobster stock, bouquet garni, and fennel, and whisk to incorporate the roux. Simmer covered for 1 hour.
• Strain the sauce, discarding the vegetables. Place lobster shells in a food processor and grind. Return ground shells to the sauce and cook until reduced to sauce consistency. Finish with cold butter whisked into sauce. When butter is incorporated, strain sauce again.
• Serve with roasted fish of your choice.

CREAMY LOBSTER SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large, microwave-safe plastic bag, arrange lobsters head to tail. Twist the top of the bag shut. Cook in a 650- to 700-watt oven at 100 percent power for 8 minutes. Carefully remove from oven. Drain any liquid that has collected in the bag into a bowl. Remove lobsters from bag and allow to cool while proceeding with the recipe.
• In a 2-quart souffle dish, melt butter, uncovered, at 100 percent power for 2 minutes. Stir in onion and cook, uncovered, at 100 percent power for 3 minutes. Remove from oven. Whisk in Worcestershire, mustard and Tabasco. Set aside.
• Holding the lobster over the bowl, separate the head from the body. Using a spoon, scrape out tomalley and roe into the bowl, being careful to avoid the brain sac. Holding the feelers, squeeze the head to extract juices. Remove meat from tail and claws. Dice the tails. Reserve claws whole for garnishing.
• Add cream and chicken broth to onion/butter mixture. Heat, uncovered, at 100 percent power for 4 minutes. Whisk tomalley, roe and reserved juices into cream mixture. Cook, uncovered, at 100 percent power for 4 minutes. Add tarragon and reserved lobster tail meat and cook 2 minutes longer. Remove from oven. Season to taste with lemon juice, salt and pepper. Toss with hot fettucine. Garnish with reserved claws. Serve immediately.

RED SNAPPER WITH A LOBSTER CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• preheat your oven to 350 degrees
• place the red snapper fillets in a baking dish and add a little water to the pan to help keep the fish from drying out
• season the snapper with sea salt and black pepper
• drizzle a little olive on the top of the fish (optional)
• bake fish for 15-20 minutes
• While fish is baking add heavy cream to a saute pan, add in old bay seasoning and reduce the cream on medium to low heat for about 5 minutes
• Add in lobster and continue to reduce for another 5 minutes, the sauce should be reduced by about 40-50 % turn off heat and allow to rest until fish is done.

CREAMY LEMON PASTA WITH LOBSTER

Steps:

• Begin by poaching the lobster tails. Add the wine and thyme to a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, add lobster tails and reduce heat to medium. Cover and simmer for 5-6 minutes, or until they turn red and curl up into almost a ball. Remove from saucepan and let cool. Using kitchen shears or scissors, carefully cut down the belly of the lobster tail to remove the meat and chop into chunks. Set aside.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil for the pasta, and season with a couple big pinches of salt. Cook pasta until al dente. (Don't forget to scoop out your pasta water before you drain it! I like to keep a mug or heat-safe measuring cup next to the stove so that I don't forget.)
• Meanwhile, start the cream sauce. Heat the olive oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and garlic and season with a pinch of salt and a few turns of freshly cracked black pepper. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant and until you're just starting to see some caramelization. Add the cream, raise heat slightly and bring to a slow simmer. (Be sure to not heat the cream too high or bring it to a boil, or else the cream can separate!)
• Once cream is just bubbling, reduce heat and add the butter, lemon zest, parmesan, and salt. Stir until butter and parm are melted, and mixture is smooth and creamy. Start by adding 1/4 cup of the reserved pasta water and lemon juice and stir to combine. Add the chopped lobster into the sauce to heat through, for about 1 minute, stirring constantly. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper, if needed. Add the pasta and toss with tongs until the sauce coats the pasta. If the sauce seems like it's too thick and needs a little loosening up, add another splash of pasta water until the sauce coats the pasta to your liking.
• Portion into bowls and garnish with fresh basil leaves, lemon zest, freshly cracked black pepper, and lemon wedges. Serve immediately.
