LOBSTER CROSTINI

Steps:

• Thaw the lobster tails, per the directions on the package.
• Once thawed, split the lobster tails in half lengthwise. Then use kitchen scissors and cut along the edge of the shell to remove the meat.
• Cut tail meat in half lengthwise, and then into 6 medallions. (After cutting all the lobster meat, you will have approximately 24 total pieces).
• Coat pan with olive oil, and on medium high heat, sauté medallions for 1 ½ minutes on each side.
• In a large bowl, toss sautéed lobster meat with the remoulade sauce and cucumbers.
• Serve 1 TBS of the lobster mix on a baguette slice and garnish with chives.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lobster, and boil for 5 to 6 minutes, until bright red. Remove the lobster, extract the tail and claw meat from the shell, and dice it. Set aside.
• Cut the tomatoes in half horizontally, and squeeze the juice and seeds into a heavy 1-quart saucepan over low heat. Add the butter, whisking constantly, until it is warm and emulsifies with the tomato juice. Add the lobster meat to the saucepan, and set aside.
• Lightly toast the bread. Spoon some the lobster meat onto each piece, and slowly spoon on the butter mixture. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, add a drizzle of olive oil and a sprig of basil.
• Serve at once. Provide knives and forks because the crostini make for messy eating.
