Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound fresh lobster meat, cooked and diced
  • 1 pound pasta (linguine or fettuccine recommended)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup chopped shallots
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped shallots. Sauté until fragrant and softened, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Pour in the dry white wine and let it simmer for 1-2 minutes, allowing the alcohol to evaporate. Add the crushed tomatoes and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Let the sauce simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Stir in the heavy cream and diced lobster meat. Gently simmer for another 5 minutes, allowing the lobster to heat through and the sauce to thicken slightly.
  4. While the sauce is simmering, cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving about 1/2 cup of pasta water. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the lobster sauce. Toss to coat, adding a little pasta water if needed to achieve the desired consistency. Garnish with fresh basil and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use fresh lobster and basil for the best flavor.
  • Be careful not to overcook the lobster, as it can become rubbery.
  • Adjust the seasoning to your preference.
  • Reserve pasta water to adjust the sauce’s consistency.
