Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 2 servings

  • 1 (1 1/2) pound fresh lobster

  • 1 cup soft bread crumbs

  • ½ cup butter, softened

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 1 teaspoon dried tarragon

  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a rapid boil. Add the lobster and cook for 8 minutes. Remove from the water and set aside to cool slightly.

  2. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (220 degrees C). When the lobster is cool enough, split it in half lengthwise using a large chef's knife. Remove the dark strip if present. Remove the tomalley to a bowl and mix with the bread crumbs, butter, salt, pepper and tarragon. Stuff this mixture on top of the lobster meat still in the shell and place lobster halves in a baking dish. Drizzle oil over the top.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until the stuffing is browned, about 20 minutes.
