Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • ½ cup butter

  • 2 cups cooked lobster meat

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

  • 2 cups light cream, divided

  • 8 slices bread

  • 2 tablespoons butter, or as needed

  1. Melt 1/2 cup butter in a large frying pan over medium-low heat; cook and stir lobster into melted butter until heated through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

  2. Whisk cornstarch and about 1 tablespoon cream together in a small bowl until smooth. Pour remaining cream into lobster, stir in cornstarch mixture; cook and stir until cream sauce comes to a simmer and thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
