Instructions

1

Cook the Lobster

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the whole Maine lobster and cook for about 8-10 minutes, or until the lobster is bright red and fully cooked. Remove the lobster from the pot and place it in an ice bath to cool.

2

Prepare the Lobster

Once the lobster is cooled, carefully split it in half lengthwise using a lobster cracker or a sharp knife. Remove any uneaten green tomalley or roe, if desired.

3

Season and Serve

Drizzle the lobsters with olio verde olive oil and sprinkle Maldon sea salt over the meat. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top before serving. Serve chilled.
