Lobster Tagliatelle Recipe

Pasta Preparation and Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Make the Pasta Dough

   In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt. Create a well in the center and add the eggs. Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.

2. 2

   Roll Out the Pasta

   After resting, divide the dough into four pieces. Roll each piece out into thin sheets using a pasta machine or a rolling pin. Cut the sheets into tagliatelle strips.

3. 3

   Cook the Pasta

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the tagliatelle for 3-4 minutes until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta.

4. 4

   Prepare the Sauce

   In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the spring peas and sauté for about 2 minutes. Add the lobster meat and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. Stir in the fresh basil.

5. 5

   Combine Pasta and Sauce

   Add the cooked tagliatelle to the skillet with lobster and peas. Toss gently to combine, adding reserved pasta water as needed to create a sauce. Season with black pepper.

6. 6

   Serve

   Plate the lobster tagliatelle and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese. Garnish with extra basil if desired.
