Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    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. Remove and let cool before cracking.

  2. 2

    Roast the Baby Potatoes

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss baby potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes until golden and tender.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chef’s Vegetables

    Steam or sauté your choice of seasonal vegetables (such as asparagus, carrots, and zucchini) until tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Clarify the Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Skim off the foam and pour the clear butter into a serving dish, leaving the milk solids behind.
