Provided by Bobby Flay

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 par-cooked lobster tails
Canola oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Charred Corn and Avocado Salsa, recipe follows
4 soft, sesame-topped hamburger buns, toasted
1 red onion, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch-thick slices
1 to 2 limes
1/2 cup mayonnaise, optional
8 ears corn
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1/2 cup creme fraiche
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
3 ripe avocados, peeled, pitted and diced
Juice of 2 limes
1 serrano chile, grilled, unpeeled and thinly sliced
1/2 small red onion, finely diced
Few dashes hot sauce, such as Tabasco
Salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat a charcoal grill for direct grilling.
  • Split each lobster tail down the underside with a heavy knife, taking care not to cut through the back shell, so that they are still in one piece that you can open like a book. Brush the lobster meat with some of the oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Place the lobsters cut-side down on the grill and cook until lightly charred and heated through, about 4 minutes. Flip and heat briefly, another 30 seconds or so. Remove from the shell, being careful to leave the meat from each half in one piece.
  • Spread some of the Charred Corn and Avocado Salsa on the bottom of the hamburger buns. Top with 2 pieces lobster, some sliced red onions and a squeeze of lime juice. Spread extra mayo on the top bun, if desired, top the sandwiches and serve.
  • Serves: 6
  • Preheat the grill to medium direct heat.
  • Pull the outer husks down the corn to the base. Strip away the silk from each ear of corn by hand. Fold the husks back into place and tie the ends together with kitchen string. Place the ears of corn in a large bowl of cold water with the salt for 1 hour.
  • Remove the corn from the water and shake off any excess water. Place the corn on the grill, close the cover and grill until the kernels are tender, 15 to 20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes. Let cool slightly. Remove the kernels from the ears.
  • Put the corn kernels, creme fraiche, cilantro, avocados, lime juice, chiles, onions and hot sauce in a medium bowl and toss gently, breaking up the avocado a bit. Season with salt and pepper.

GRILLED LOBSTER WITH SMOKY GARLIC MOJO



Grilled Lobster with Smoky Garlic Mojo image

Grilled lobster tails pair wonderfully with mojo de ajo sauce, which means "garlic bath." It's a good quantity of olive oil with a good quantity of garlic, all cooked very slowly until that garlic is beautifully aromatic. It's liquid gold for a cook.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup garlic cloves, about 1 head, peeled
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus additional for finishing the lobster
1 tablespoon lime juice, plus more to taste
2 chipotle chiles in adobo, from canned chipotle peppers
4 lobster tails (preferably spiny), 5-6 ounces each, split in half
Flaky sea salt, for garnish, preferably Maldon
Lazy Salsa Huevona, from "Lazy Salsa Huevona" recipe
Cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • For the mojo, add the garlic to the food processor, and run the processor until the garlic is finely minced. Heat a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the olive oil. Add the chopped garlic and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
  • Season the mojo with salt and add the lime juice.Split the chile peppers lengthwise and scrape out and discard the seeds. Chop the peppers and add to the simmering mojo. Continue to cook for a few additional minutes. Remove from heat and cool completely.
  • For the lobster, heat a gas grill on medium-high or light a charcoal grill, and let the fire burn down until the coals are covered in a gray ash.Brush a generous amount of the mojo on the flesh-side of each lobster half and season with salt. Lay the lobster tails flesh-side down on the grill. When the lobster has browned a little and can be easily dislodged from the grill, flip them over and cook shell-side down until the meat is done, about another 2 or 3 minutes.
  • Transfer the tails to a serving platter, shell side down, and sprinkle with finishing salt. Spoon some of the warm mojo on top, then spoon Lazy Salsa Huevona around the lobster; garnish with cilantro leaves. Serve immediately.
