If you have seafood for the holidays, try this recipe I made a few years ago for a dinner party I catered. It’s a little pricey. Good thing I didn’t have to pay for it!
Stuffed Lobster Tails
4 (1 1/4-pound) lobsters, cooked
1 lb. Lump crab meat, cooked
2 cups crushed Ritz crackers
2 tablespoons Old Bay seasoning
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
3 tablespoons fresh Parmesan cheese
2 1/2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
4 lemon wedges
Preheat broiler.
Remove the meat from the cooked lobster tail. Remove the claws; chop meat. Set lobster tail shells aside. Combine the lobster, crab and crackers and the next 6 ingredients (crackers through Worcestershire sauce) in a large bowl. Stuff the tails with the lobster/crab mixture evenly among tail shells. Broil the stuffed lobster tails 6-8 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with lemon wedges.
You can also use 6 frozen lobster tails, cooked, for this recipe, reserving just 4 of the tails to stuff.
