1.5lb Lobster Frites Recipe

Prepare the Lobster

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lobster and cook for 8-10 minutes until bright red and cooked through. Remove the lobster from the pot and let it cool slightly. Once cool, crack the shell and remove the meat, then chop into bite-sized pieces.

Cook the French Fries

While the lobster is cooling, prepare the French fries according to package instructions if using frozen, or fry homemade fries until golden and crispy. Season with salt and pepper.

Make the Garlic Butter

In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.

Combine and Serve

Add the lobster meat to the garlic butter and toss to coat. Serve the lobster on top of the fries, drizzling any remaining garlic butter over the top. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
