Ingredients

– 2 lobster tails
– 8 ounces of fettuccine or linguine
– 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 teaspoon lemon zest
– 1 tablespoon lemon juice
– 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

Creating Buttered Lobster Pasta is a delicious journey that can be mastered with these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Lobster: Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lobster tails and cook for about 5-7 minutes until they turn red. Remove and let cool.
2. Cook the Pasta: In another pot, cook the fettuccine or linguine according to package instructions. Drain, reserving a cup of pasta water.
3. Extract Lobster Meat: Once the lobster tails are cool enough to handle, cut them in half and carefully remove the meat. Chop the meat into bite-sized pieces.
4. Make the Sauce: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
5. Add Cream and Lemon: Pour in the heavy cream, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Stir and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
6. Combine Ingredients: Add the chopped lobster meat to the skillet. Toss gently in the creamy sauce until heated through.
7. Mix with Pasta: Add the cooked pasta to the skillet. If the sauce is too thick, add a bit of reserved pasta water until you achieve the desired consistency.
8. Finish and Serve: Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Plate the pasta and garnish with chopped parsley.

Following these straightforward steps will guide you in creating this luxurious dish easily.
