Ingredients

  • ¾ pounds fettuccine
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic chopped fine
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cups lobster stock
  • 2 cooked lobsters meat from tail and legs removed and chopped into bite sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons fresh basil finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Start by bringing a big pot of water to boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente.
  2. Heat a medium-sized saute (frying) pan until hot. Add oil, and when it begins to shimmer, just before the smoking point, add the onions and cook for 3 minutes over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the garlic and continue cooking until the onions become translucent. Please don't let the garlic burn.
  4. Add a quarter cup of the lobster stock to deglaze the pan. Add the lobster and the rest of the lobster stock.
  5. Continue cooking until the lobster stock is reduced by half or to your desired thickness.
  6. Add the chopped basil and parsley. Mount the butter in pieces off the heat. Mounting is where you add butter to a sauce at the end to give it texture, flavor, and a sheen.
  7. Cut it up into smaller pieces and add one at a time while continuously stirring. You don't want to add all the butter at once.
  8. Taste the sauce and season with salt and pepper.
  9. When the pasta is done, drain it and add it to the sauce, mix it all together, and serve.
