Broiled Twin Maine Lobster Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Lobster

   Preheat your broiler. Carefully split the lobsters in half lengthwise and place them on a baking sheet, shell side down.

2. 2

   Broil the Lobster

   Brush the lobster meat with melted butter and season with salt and pepper. Broil for about 8-10 minutes until the meat is opaque and cooked through.

3. 3

   Cook the Mushrooms

   In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the Hen Of The Woods mushrooms and sauté until golden brown and tender, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

4. 4

   Prepare the Brussels Sprouts

   Trim and halve the Brussels sprouts. In another pot, boil water and blanch the sprouts for about 3-4 minutes until bright green. Drain and toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

5. 5

   Cook the Yukon Potatoes

   Boil the Yukon potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and mash with remaining butter and season with salt and pepper.

6. 6

   Make the Squash Espuma

   In a blender, combine cooked squash (about 1 cup), a bit of cream (1/2 cup), salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and frothy. Transfer to a saucepan and warm it gently over low heat.

7. 7

   Serve

   Plate the lobster halves alongside the sautéed mushrooms, Brussels sprouts, and mashed Yukon potatoes. Drizzle with the squash espuma and serve with drawn butter and lemon wedges.
