Main Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Seafood

    In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the shrimp and scallops to the skillet and cook until they are opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Lobster Tail

    In the same skillet, add the lobster tail (cut in half) and cook for about 5-7 minutes until the meat is opaque and easily pulls away from the shell. Remove and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Asparagus

    In a separate pot, bring water to a boil. Add asparagus and blanch for 2-3 minutes until tender but still crisp. Drain and set aside.

  4. 4

    Make the Newburg Sauce

    In the same skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the shallots and sauté until translucent. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in the heavy cream and cook until thickened. Remove from heat and whisk in the egg yolks and cognac. Season with salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Plate the mashed potatoes, top with the shrimp, scallops, and lobster. Drizzle with Newburg sauce and serve alongside the blanched asparagus.
