Categories     Milk/Cream     Dairy     Pasta     Shellfish     Tomato     Sauté     Quick & Easy     Lobster     White Wine     Fall     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 1 3/4-pound live lobsters
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup tomato paste
2 large plum tomatoes, chopped
1/3 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 garlic cloves, sliced
2 fresh tarragon sprigs
2 fresh thyme sprigs
2 fresh Italian parsley sprigs
6 cups whipping cream
1 1/2 pounds fettuccine or linguine

Steps:

  • Bring very large pot of salted water to boil. Add lobsters. Boil until cooked through, about 12 minutes (or cook in batches, if necessary). Using tongs, transfer lobsters to large rimmed baking sheet. Remove meat from tail and claws; place meat in medium bowl. Remove any roe from bodies and place in small bowl. Cover and chill meat and roe (if any). Remove tomalley (green matter) from bodies and discard. Reserve bodies and shells.
  • Heat oil in heavy large pot over high heat. Add reserved lobster bodies and shells. Sauté 3 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Add tomato paste; stir 3 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, wine, vinegar, garlic, tarragon, thyme, and parsley. Add cream; boil 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer just until lobster flavor infuses cream, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes. Strain sauce into large bowl, pressing on solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard contents of strainer. (Lobster and sauce can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover separately and chill.)
  • Transfer sauce to heavy large saucepan. Cut lobster meat into bite-size pieces; coarsely crumble roe, if using. Add to sauce. Gently rewarm over low heat, stirring occasionally.
  • Meanwhile, cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally. Drain; return pasta to pot. Add sauce; toss over medium-high heat until sauce coats pasta, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to large shallow bowl and serve.

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 slices bacon, chopped
3 shallots, minced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups tomato puree
1/4 cup cream
1 pound linguine
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan, plus more for serving
1 cup baby arugula, roughly chopped
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, roughly chopped
1/4 cup fresh tarragon leaves, roughly chopped
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
Two 1 1/2-pound lobsters, steamed, meat removed

Steps:

  • Heat a large straight-sided skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and bacon and cook until the bacon is beginning to crisp, 8 minutes. Add the shallots, garlic and red pepper flakes and cook for an additional 3 minutes, until fragrant. Add the salt, tomato puree and cream; stir to combine. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the linguine for 1 minute less than the package instructions, about 10 minutes. Using tongs, remove the pasta from the water and add it directly to the pan with the sauce. Sprinkle the cheese directly on the naked pasta and toss to coat in sauce. Add up to 1 cup of the pasta water to loosen the sauce as needed. Stir in the arugula, basil, tarragon, peas and lobster meat; simmer until everything is heated through, 1 minute. Serve with additional Parmesan if desired.

Pasta with Lobster, Wild Mushrooms, and Cream image

Categories     Milk/Cream     Mushroom     Pasta     Shellfish     Sauté     Parmesan     Basil     Lobster     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) butter
2 10- to 12-ounce frozen lobster tails, thawed
8 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stemmed, thinly sliced
1/2 cup (packed) thinly sliced fresh basil
6 green onions, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 1/3 cups whipping cream
1 8-ounce bottle clam juice
12 ounces fettuccine
1/4 cup freshly grated Asiago cheese (about 1 ounce)

Steps:

  • Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add lobster tails and sauté until shells are bright red in spots, about 5 minutes. Cover skillet; reduce heat to low and cook until lobster is cooked through, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat. Using slotted spoon, transfer lobster to work surface. Using heavy large knife, cut each tail lengthwise in half. Remove meat from shell. Cut meat crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Return same skillet to medium-high heat (do not clean). Add mushrooms, half of basil, green onions, and garlic; sauté until mushrooms soften, about 5 minutes. Add cream and clam juice. Boil until sauce is slightly thickened, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Add lobster (or shrimp if using) and simmer 1 minute. Stir in remaining basil. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to bite. Drain well. Return to pot. Pour sauce over pasta and add cheese; toss over low heat until warmed through, then serve.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh lobster meat. If you're using frozen lobster meat, be sure to thaw it completely before cooking.
  • If you don't have a kitchen torch, you can broil the lobster tails in the oven for a few minutes until the tops are browned.
  • Be careful not to overcook the lobster tails. They should be cooked just until they are opaque and firm, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • If you don't have heavy cream, you can use milk or half-and-half instead. However, the sauce will be thinner.
  • To make the sauce even richer, you can add a tablespoon of butter or olive oil.
  • If you like, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the sauce for a little spice.

Conclusion:

This pasta with lobster cream sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The lobster tails are cooked to perfection and the sauce is rich and flavorful. The pasta is a great way to soak up all of the delicious sauce. This dish is sure to impress your guests.
