Pasta and Sauce

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lobster

    Start by preheating your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the lobster tails with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill for about 5-7 minutes, until the meat is opaque and cooked through. Remove from the grill and let cool slightly before slicing in half lengthwise.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pasta

    In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the squid ink linguine according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving some pasta water.

  3. 3

    Make the Lobster Cream Sauce

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the lobster stock and bring to a simmer. Stir in the heavy cream and red chili flakes, and let the sauce reduce for about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    Add the cooked squid ink linguine to the sauce and toss to combine. If the sauce is too thick, add a bit of the reserved pasta water to reach your desired consistency.

  5. 5

    Serve the Dish

    Plate the squid ink linguine and top with the grilled lobster tails. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
