Ingredients
- 4 cups water
- 1 bay leaf
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 3 large garlic cloves, chopped (divided)
- kosher salt
- black pepper
- 1 pound large shrimp or prawns, peeled, deveined, tail-on
- 1 1/2 lemons, divided
- 1 pound (about two) lobster tails
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 red onion, roughly chopped
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 Roma tomatoes, diced
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 2 15-oz cans chicken broth
- 2 cups baby kale
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1 cup fresh parsley leaves
Instructions
- Make a poaching liquid. In a medium pot or deep saute pan, add the water, bay leaf, ginger, one chopped garlic clove, and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Bring to a boil over high heat.
- Meanwhile, season the shrimp. Add the shrimp to a medium bowl. Toss with the juice of 1/2 lemon and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Poach the lobster. Add the lobster to the boiling water and turn heat to medium-high. Cover and let cook until lobster shells turn bright pink, about 3 minutes. Use tongs to transfer the lobster to a cutting board to cool. Turn off the heat and set the broth aside for later.
- Peel the lobster. Once cool enough to handle, use kitchen scissors to cut lobster shell down the middle. Use your hands to remove the meat from the shell, then coarsely chop the meat into bite-sized pieces.
- Make the base of the soup. In a large pot, heat the olive oil on medium-high heat. When the oil shimmers, add the red onion and red pepper flakes. Stir until softened, about 5 minutes, then add the remaining 3 garlic cloves. Toss until fragrant, 1 minute or so. Sir in the tomato, coriander, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Finish the broth. Add the white wine and cook for 3 to 5 minutes to reduce. Add the chicken broth, then pour in the lobster broth through a mesh mesh colander. Juice in the remaining lemon.
- Cook the shrimp. Let the broth come to a high simmer, then add the shrimp. One minute later, stir in the cooked lobster.
- Finish and serve. Stir in the kale, green onions, and parsley. Remove from heat. Cover and let sit for five minutes to soften the greens, then serve.

Be sure to let the stew cool completely before sealing it, and keep the shrimp and lobster fully submerged in the broth to maintain their tenderness and flavor.
- To Reheat: Gently warm the stew on the stovetop over medium heat until just heated through—avoid boiling, as this can make the seafood rubbery.
