Lobster Sauce

Method

Preparing the Pintade

  1. 1

    Searing the Guinea Fowl

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the guinea fowl breasts with salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme. Sear the breasts for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and let rest.

Making the Lobster Sauce

    Creating the Sauce

    In the same skillet, add the chopped shallots and sauté until translucent. Pour in the white wine and reduce by half. Add the lobster stock and bring to a simmer. Stir in the heavy cream and let it cook for about 5-7 minutes until thickened. Finish with butter and season with salt and black pepper. Stir in fresh chives before serving.
