Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (16 ounce) package bow-tie pasta
3 tablespoons butter, divided
1 tablespoon finely diced shallot
2 cups heavy whipping cream
½ cup dry white wine (such as Chardonnay)
cayenne pepper
2 pinches saffron
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 pound uncooked shrimp - peeled, deveined, and tails removed
½ pound cooked lobster meat
½ pound cooked lump crabmeat
lemon, juiced

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook bow-tie pasta at a boil, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain, add 1 tablespoon butter, and stir. Set aside and keep warm.

Crab-Stuffed Lobster Tails with Blender Bearnaise Sauce image

Nothing makes me feel more fancy than lobster, and these lobster tails-stuffed with a crab cake mix-are sensational. And, since I'm a self-proclaimed sauce girl, I like to serve my Blender Béarnaise sauce over the top. That's right-I've made homemade béarnaise sauce easier than ever, so if you've been shy about making it, you should give this method a try!

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings; 1 cup sauce

Number Of Ingredients 18

Six 6-ounce lobster tails
4 tablespoons salted butter, melted
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon dry sherry, optional
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon seafood seasoning
1 large egg
15 round buttery crackers, crushed
8 ounces lump crabmeat
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon minced shallot
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
4 large pasteurized egg yolks
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the lobster: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Cut the middle of the tops of the lobster shells with kitchen shears all the way down to the bottoms of the tails. (Be careful not to cut the lobster meat.) Carefully loosen the meat from the shells. Cut a slit lengthwise down the meat of each.
  • Combine the butter and lemon zest in a bowl. Set aside.
  • Whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, sherry, Worcestershire sauce, seafood seasoning and egg. Fold in the crackers and crabmeat. Stuff the crab mixture into the slits in the lobster tails. Brush the crab and lobster with the melted butter.
  • Place the lobster tails on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the lobster turns opaque and is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Switch the oven to broil and broil until the crab stuffing is browned, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the blender béarnaise sauce: Combine the wine, vinegar, shallot and 1 tablespoon of the tarragon in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Simmer until the mixture is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool completely.
  • Place the egg yolks in a blender and add the cooled wine mixture. Purée for 30 seconds.
  • Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until very hot. With the blender running, pour the melted butter through the blender top, blending until the sauce is smooth and thickened. Remove from the blender and stir in the remaining tablespoon tarragon and season with salt and pepper. Set aside. (The sauce will continue to thicken as it stands.)
  • Serve the béarnaise sauce with the lobster tails.

LOBSTER RAVIOLI WITH CRABMEAT CREAM SAUCE



Lobster Ravioli with Crabmeat Cream Sauce image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

2 ounces unsalted butter
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped shallots
16 ounces cooked lobster meat
4 ounces cooked snow crabmeat
2 ounces Cognac
2 ounces ricotta
Salt
Pepper
1 tablespoon chopped chives
Pasta Dough, recipe follows
Egg white, slightly beaten
2 ounces unsalted butter
1 tablespoon chopped shallots
4 ounces whole chunk Maryland crabmeat
2 ounces Cognac
5 ounces tomato sauce
10 ounces heavy cream
Salt
8 ounces durum flour
8 ounces semolina
1 egg
Water, as needed
Pinch salt

Steps:

  • For the Lobster Ravioli: In a large saute pan, add the butter and melt. Add the garlic and shallots and saute until golden brown. Add lobster, crab, and chives and saute 2 to 3 minutes. Add Cognac and reduce for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and cool for 30 minutes, until room temperature. Chop lobster mixture into small chunks. In a large bowl, combine lobster mixture and ricotta and mix well. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Lay out the first piece of Pasta Dough on the table and place 1/4-ounce mounds of stuffing 2 inches apart. Using a pastry brush, brush egg white around each bit of stuffing, making the dough damp not wet. Take the second piece and cover the bottom piece with the stuffing. Press around each ravioli being careful not to squeeze the stuffing out. Using a round ravioli cutter, cut each ravioli round and put on a sheet pan sprinkled with semolina. Gently place ravioli in boiling water and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente.
  • For the sauce: Using a 12-inch saute pan at medium heat, add butter, shallots, and saute until shallots are translucent. Add the crabmeat and saute for about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the saute pan from the burner and add Cognac then place pan back on the heat to cook off the alcohol. (Please beware: the Cognac will create a large flame.) Once the flame stops, add the tomato sauce and cream with salt and cook until it reduces half way and becomes creamy. Add the cooked ravioli to the sauce and let cook together for about 1 minute before serving. Garnish with chives.
  • Add all the ingredients into a large mixing bowl until all ingredients are blended. Place mixture on countertop and knead until the texture is smooth and well mixed. Separate the pasta dough into 2 equal pieces and put one piece aside. Flour the first piece, just enough to prevent sticking and roll out with a rolling pin to about 1/8th-inch thick. Repeat procedure with second piece making it as close to the shape as the first.
