Lobster & Eggs

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Butter Poaching the Lobster

    In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, add the lobster tails to the pan and poach them for 8-10 minutes, until they are opaque and cooked through. Remove from the butter and let cool slightly, then chop into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Cooking the Eggs

    In a separate skillet, heat a little butter or oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook to your desired doneness (sunny side up, over easy, etc.). Season with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Preparing the Tortillas

    In another skillet, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat until soft and pliable, about 30 seconds on each side.

  4. 4

    Plating the Dish

    To assemble, place a warm tortilla on a plate, top with butter poached lobster, and a cooked egg. Garnish with diced avocado, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
