Best 8 Grilled Stuffed Lobster With Ginger Butter Recipes

GRILLED LOBSTER TAILS WITH GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Combine butter, minced garlic, hot sauce, and pepper in a bowl; mix until fully combined. Set aside.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Butterfly lobster tails by cutting lengthwise through the centers of the hard top shells and about halfway through the top of the meat with kitchen shears. With your fingers, press shell halves of the tails apart. Flip them over, and insert a skewer down the lobster tail so that the tail is easier to remove after cooking and doesn't curl up. Brush tails with olive oil and season with salt.
• Place lobster tails on the preheated grill with the cut shell sides down; grill until shells are bright in color, 5 to 8 minutes. Flip and spoon 1 tablespoon butter mixture onto the butterflied meat through the cut in the shell. Grill until lobster meat is an opaque white color, 4 to 7 more minutes, basting once more with butter mixture.
• Remove lobster tails from the grill and serve with more garlic butter and lemon wedges.

GRILLED STUFFED LOBSTER WITH GINGER BUTTER

Steps:

• Kill the lobsters by plunging a large chef's knife into the joint where the head meets the body. Halve the lobsters lengthwise and cut off the claws. Set aside. Discard the sac on each half lobster near the head. Also remove the the long white strip along the meat, which is the intestines. Remove the lobster roe and reserve.
• In a bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, tarragon, 4 tablespoons butter, the lobster roe, salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Brush the meat of the lobsters with vegetable oil and place them, meat side down, over the fire, along with the claws. Cover and cook about 5 minutes.
• Flip the lobsters and the claws and fill the cavities where the roe was with the breadcrumb mixture. Place one tablespoon of butter and the shallots in a saucepan and place over the grill. Cover the grill and continue cooking.
• When the butter in the saucepan is melted, about 2 minutes, add two tablespoons of white wine vinegar and 2 tablespoons grated ginger. When the vinegar has reduced, another 2 minutes, add 2 tablespoons heavy cream and stir well. Bring to a boil, reduce by half, then stir in remaining butter. When all the butter has melted, remove sauce from heat and keep warm.
• Return the cover and cook the lobster about 8 more minutes. Serve each guest a lobster half with sauce over the meat, and a claw.

GRILLED LOBSTER AND SUMMER VEGETABLES WITH SPICY HERBED BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to high.
• In a food processor, combine the butter, garlic, jalapeno, parsley, lemon juice, and chives. Season with salt and pepper and process until well combined. Place in a small container. Remove a few tablespoons of the herbed butter and set aside. This reserved butter will be used to finish the lobsters and vegetables once they are off the grill and prevent cross contamination.
• Bring a large pot of water to a rapid boil. Place the lobsters in the boiling water and blanch just until the shells turn red, but the meat is not cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove the lobsters and let cool slightly. Slice the lobsters in half lengthwise. Brush the meat and inside of the lobsters with some of the herbed butter, about 1 tablespoon per lobster half. Place the lobsters on the grill, flesh side down and cook until the meat has grill marks and starts to turn opaque and firm up, about 5 minutes.
• While the lobsters are cooking, start the grilled vegetables. Drizzle the vegetables and lemon wedges with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the vegetables and lemon wedges on the grill and brush with some of the compound butter. Grill until tender and browned, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Turn the lobsters over and grill an additional 3 to 4 minutes, brushing with more butter, if desired. Remove the lobsters and vegetables to a large platter. Squeeze some of the grilled lemon wedges over the tail meat. If desired, serve with some of the reserved herbed butter.

BAKED LOBSTER WITH GARLIC BUTTER PANKO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a food processor add panko, butter, fresh herbs, garlic and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Process until well combined then set aside while you prepare the lobster.
• Place the lobster halves flesh side up in a roasting tray. Top with the panko-mixture. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake in the hot oven for 30 to 35 minutes until the top is golden brown. Serve whole with a shell cracker, or split claw shells slightly with the heel of your knife and section the tail into pieces. Serve with fresh lemon wedges, mixed lettuce and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and lemon juice.

• Cook for 3 minutes.
• Remove lobster with tongs and return water to boiling.

GRILLED LOBSTER WITH GINGER, GARLIC, AND SOY SAUCE

Steps:

• Cook first 4 ingredients in medium saucepan over low heat until garlic and ginger begin to brown, about 8 minutes. Set aside. (Sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill. Rewarm before using.)
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Drop 1 lobster headfirst into large pot of boiling water. Cover; cook 3 minutes (lobster will not be fully cooked). Using tongs, transfer lobster to baking sheet. Return water to boil. Repeat with remaining lobsters.
• Transfer 1 lobster, shell side down, to work surface. Place tip of large knife in center of lobster. Cut lobster lengthwise in half from center to end of head (knife might not cut through shell), then cut in half from center to end of tail. Use poultry shears to cut through shell if necessary. Repeat with remaining lobsters.
• Place lobster halves, meat side up, on barbecue. Brush meat with some basting sauce; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover barbecue; grill lobsters until just opaque in thickest portion of tail, about 9 minutes. Remove from barbecue; arrange lobsters on platter. Brush with more sauce and sprinkle with green onions. Serve, passing remaining sauce separately.

GRILLED LOBSTER WITH TARRAGON BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Cut lobster tails lengthwise with poultry shears. Cut open claws to allow sauce to reach the meat.
• Combine butter, lemon juice, onion, parsley, garlic, tarragon, and hot sauce in a bowl. Slather meat with sauce and place face-down on the preheated grill.
• Cook until lobster begins to char, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip and continue to grill until meat is opaque and firm, 5 to 6 minutes more.

GRILLED LOBSTER TAILS WITH LEMON & HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• Make the butter by mixing together all the ingredients, then season and set aside. Can be made two days ahead. Remove from the fridge to soften before using.
• Use kitchen scissors to cut along the tops of the lobster shells, then flip the tails over and crack the ribs of the shell. Use your fingers to open the shell and loosen the meat keeping it attached at the base and pull it half out. Use a knife to cut along the top of the tail without cutting all the way through and remove the vein if you see one. Sit the tail in a shallow roasting tray and add some butter to each one. Tails can be prepared a few hours ahead and chilled.
• Heat the grill to high, then grill the lobster tails for 10 mins until cooked through. Put them on plates and drizzle with the butter from the pan, or pour the butter into a ramekin and put it in the middle of the table for dipping the lobster meat in. Serve with lemon wedges and scatter with extra parsley, if you like.
