Directions

Step 1:

Sauté the celery and onion in a little whole butter and olive oil.

Step 2:

Add the tomatoes, lobster coral and break it up so it will color evenly.

Step 3:

Add the stock, wine, and cook to reduce to about half.

Step 4:

Add the pasta, basil, cream, and seasoning and bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, then add the lobster and cook 1 minute.

Step 5:

Add the cheese to tighten to your desired consistency, plate it and sprinkle the parsley or any herb you desire.

 

Note: You may choose any pasta, but the bow ties are great as they grab the sauce. Small shells hold the sauce.
