This is a simple and delicious recipe- from one of Women's Day Magazines or Workbasket Magazine not sure of it's origin- but the recipe was contributed by Mr. Barra. There use to be a Mr. Barra that lived next door to me in Michigan long ago , but I don't think it was him, he was more of a steak and potato guy, you never know...

Place over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, for 3 to 4 minutes or until sauce boils, thickens and coats the back of a metal spoon. Add the cheese and stir until cheese melts. Remove from heat. Taste and season with salt and white pepper. Stir in the chives and lobster meat.
  • 4. Spoon lobster mixture evenly among the shells.If you want to brown them; sprinkle tops with panko bread crumbs and drizzle with lemon juice- Cook under preheated broiler, about 6 inches from the heat source, for about 4 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and place on 2 plates and serve,sprinkle with parsley and serve with a nice salad and lemon rice, if desired.https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/side/side-rice-side/lemon-rice-with-pineapple-and-corn.html

Tips:

  • Use fresh lobster meat. Fresh lobster meat has a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen lobster meat. If you can't find fresh lobster meat, frozen lobster meat is a good substitute.
  • Cook the lobster meat properly. Lobster meat is cooked when it is opaque and firm. Overcooked lobster meat is tough and chewy.
  • Use a good quality béchamel sauce. Béchamel sauce is the base of Lobster Mornay sauce. A good quality béchamel sauce will be smooth and creamy.
  • Add cheese to taste. The amount of cheese you add to Lobster Mornay sauce is up to you. A little cheese will give the sauce a mild flavor, while more cheese will give it a stronger flavor.
  • Serve Lobster Mornay sauce over your favorite pasta or vegetables. Lobster Mornay sauce is a versatile sauce that can be served over a variety of dishes.
