Lobster Benedict Preparation

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same saucepan, add sliced mushrooms and sauté until they are tender. Add spinach and cook until wilted. Season with salt and pepper.

    Prepare Croissants

    Slice the croissants in half and toast them lightly. Place the sautéed vegetables on the bottom half of each croissant.

    Place the poached lobster meat on top of the sautéed vegetables on each croissant.

Lobster Infused Hollandaise Preparation

    Make Hollandaise Sauce

    In a heatproof bowl, whisk egg yolks with lemon juice. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler). Slowly drizzle in melted butter while whisking continuously until the sauce thickens. Stir in lobster stock, and season with salt and pepper.
