H L's Pure Maine Lobster Stew

Total Time: 55 mins Preparation Time: 30 mins Cook Time: 25 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 1 maine lobster, cooked and shelled
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 1 quart half-and-half cream
• salt, if needed

Recipe

• 1 cut lobster tail, knuckle and claw meat into pieces. do not mince or chop finely.
• 2 melt butter in a deep skillet or heavy sauce pan and add lobster, sauté 2 minutes on low heat. this will give a bit of pink color.
• 3 add half&half and bring up to slight hot bubble.
• 4 simmer on low heat 15 minutes stirring occasionally and serve hot.
• 5 i like a bit of crusty french bread toasted with this. personally i avoid a salad or have salad after as i don't want dressing and things getting in the way of the flavor.
• 6 i used to use light cream for this and changed years ago to half and half. this is going to be high calorie either way though you will not eat it daily so don't worry! :).
• 7 cooking time does not include boiling the lobster and you want to boil it until just done with no flavorings in the water at all.
• 8 you will get 4 meal portions or 6 first course servings. it will, however, be calculated based on 4 servings.
