2 (8-10) ounce lobster tails
6 ounces lump crab meat
¼ cup Hellman's Mayonnaise
½ tsp sugar
½ tsp old bay
1 tsp finely chopped Italian parsley (optional)
1 tsp finely chopped red pepper or roasted red pepper (optional)
1 large egg lightly beaten

4 ounces unsalted butter

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Melt butter
  • Split lobster tail down the middle, being careful not to completely split the lobster
  • Pull the lobster meat out of the shell, leaving the end flap inside the shell.
  • Fan the tail and bend it upwards till you hear a little snap, this will help keep the fanned tail in place.
  • Push both sections of the shell together and place the split lobster on top of the shell.
  • Spoon some of the butter over top of the lobster, place in a baking pan and into 350 degree oven.
  • Allow lobster to bake for 5 minutes so that the area you are stuffing will get partially cooked.
  • Remove lobster from oven after the partial cooking and dividing the crab imperial mixture into two portions, stuff the top of the lobster tail, making a mound with the crab imperial.
  • Return lobster to the oven and continue baking for 15-20 minutes until topping has a nice golden color.
  • Remove Stuffed Lobster from the oven and spoon just a little bit more of the butter on the stuffed lobster.
  • Serve with your favorite side dish, and after presenting the dish to the table, gently remove the stuffed lobster completely from the shell and return to the plate.
  • Serve with melted butter and a squeeze of lemon and enjoy!

Time 30m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lobster tails, split along the center top
2 teaspoons butter, melted
15 buttery round crackers, crushed
½ cup jumbo lump crabmeat
¼ cup clarified butter
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste
¼ teaspoon freshly ground white pepper, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Pull the edges of the split lobster shells apart and gently lift the tail meat to rest above the shells. Place the prepared lobster tails on a baking sheet.
  • Brush each portion of tail meat with 1 teaspoon melted butter.
  • Lightly mix the crushed crackers, crabmeat, 1/4 cup of clarified butter, parsley, seafood seasoning, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and white pepper in a bowl until thoroughly combined.
  • Spoon half the stuffing onto each lobster tail; press lightly to slightly shape the stuffing so it doesn't fall off.
  • Bake the lobster tails in the preheated oven until the meat is opaque and the stuffing is golden brown on top, 10 to 12 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the lobster tail should read 145 degrees F (65 degrees C).
