LOBSTER RISOTTO
So you cooked some lobster and that was great. You sautéed the empty shells in oil and cooked them off in a lot of water with an onion, a couple bay leaves and a few peppercorns, and made stock. This is as it should be, always. Lobster is expensive. Make its flavors last. And when you are ready, make this risotto. Heat the stock in a pot. Melt butter in a heavy saucepan next to it, add onions and cook them translucent, salt the whole and add Arborio rice, then stir to combine. Now start adding hot broth to the rice, a cup at a time, stirring endlessly all the while, never adding more stock until everything you have added has been absorbed. When everything is tender and creamy, add Parmesan and any leftover lobster meat you happen to have. If the answer is none, do not worry in the least. This is a rich risotto without meat, luxury eating on the cheap.

PAN-SEARED SCALLOPS OVER LOBSTER-PROSCIUTTO RISOTTO
Steps:
- For the risotto: Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat until just beginning to smoke. Add the onions, garlic and shallots; saute, stirring frequently, until the onions are translucent. Add the rice and stir to coat with the oil. Add the white wine, stirring to make sure the rice grains are moving freely and not clumped together. Reduce the heat to medium.
- In a separate saucepan, whisk together the lobster stock, tomato paste and sherry. Add to the lobster stock mixture to the rice, 1/2 cup at a time. Cook, stirring continuously, until all the stock has been added and the rice is al dente. Set the risotto aside and keep warm.
- Split the lobster tail in half, coat the meat with butter, and lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill until almost fully cooked. Remove the meat from the shell, cut into bite-size cubes, and add to the risotto to finish cooking. Set the risotto aside.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Deep-fry the julienned prosciutto until crispy, 1 minute. Drain on paper towels. Add 3/4 cup of the fried prosciutto to the risotto; reserve the remainder for garnish.
- For the scallops: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Heat a large saute pan over high heat. While the pan is heating, pat the scallops dry with a heavy, lint-free paper towel and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add the olive oil to the pan; heat until extremely hot and smoking. Add the scallops and cook until beginning to turn golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip the scallops, then transfer to the oven for about 4 minutes, or until cooked through.
- To finish: Return the risotto to medium heat. Add the Parmesan and stir to combine.
- For each serving, top one scoop of risotto with 5 sea scallops. Drizzle with citrus butter sauce and scallion oil, and garnish with the reserved crispy prosciutto and some cilantro leaves.
- Combine the lemon juice, lime juice, orange juice and white wine in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook until reduced by three-quarters. Remove from the heat add the butter, stirring continuously until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

LOBSTER RISOTTO
Steps:
- Cut lobster by piercing the middle of the skull and continue to cut through to the tail. Clean the inside thoroughly.
- Saute 1 of the onions and the garlic together in olive oil for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add the lobster halves and cook 2 to 3 minutes or until the lobster turns a light red color. Remove the lobster. Pull the meat out of the shell, roughly chop and place in the refrigerator. Return the shells to the pan. At this time, deglaze the pan with 2 1/2 cups of the white wine. Add the cream and let cook uncovered until the cream reduces to 3 cups and turns a light red/orange color, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Remove the shells.
- Saute the remaining onion in a saucepan in olive oil for 3 minutes, or until transparent. Add the arborio rice and stir for 1 minute. Deglaze with the remaining 1/2 cup white wine and cook until wine is almost completely absorbed.

Steps:
- For the risotto: Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook until they are softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the rice and stir with a wooden spoon to combine the onion mixture with the rice. Add the wine and simmer until the liquid is evaporated. Add 1/2 cup of the stock and stir until almost completely absorbed, about 2 minutes. Continue adding the stock, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly and allowing each addition of stock to absorb before adding the next. You may need to add an additional cup of water. Cook until the rice is tender but still firm, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir in the Parmesan, lemon juice, parsley, salt and pepper. Spray a baking sheet with the nonstick cooking spray and spread the risotto out on the sheet to cool to room temperature, about 15 minutes.
- For the arancini: In a large bowl combine the risotto, 1/2 cup of the panko, the Parmesan and the eggs. With damp hands, use about 2 tablespoons of the risotto mixture to form 1 3/4-inch diameter balls. Make an indentation in the center of each ball and insert a cube of lobster. Cover up the hole to completely enclose the lobster and roll the balls in the remaining 1 1/2 cups panko to coat.
- In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, pour in enough oil to so that it is 3-inches deep. Heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 350 degrees F. (If you don't have a thermometer, a cube of bread will brown in about 2 minutes.) In batches, fry the rice balls, turning occasionally, until golden, about 4 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve.
DECADENT LOBSTER & SCALLOP RISOTTO
An elegant and easy to make dish that can make a little seafood go a long way. Perfect for a romantic dinner for two or for an impress-your-guests dinner party appetizer or side dish. The key to the mouthwatering lobster flavor is in the lobster stock used. The use of frozen lobster and sea scallops (which I always have in my freezer) makes this something you can quickly whip up from ingredients on hand. Substituting King or Snow crab would work just as well. Serve with champagne, sparkling wine or the same dry white wine used in the preparation for a perfect finish.

Steps:
- Start the stock per directions on the jar. Keep on medium heat but under a boil.
- If scallops are frozen begin thawing them by placing in bowl of luke warm water.
- Heat pot of water to boiling. Add sweet corn and cook 5 minutes.
- Remove corn to cool and add frozen, precooked lobster. Remove from heat and let sit 5 minutes. (If lobster is fresh leave heat on and cook until shells turn red.).
- While lobster is heating, chop scallions and cut corn off of cob.
- Remove lobster from pot. Let cool then remove lobster from shells. Add all shells to lobster bouillon and lower heat to medium-low and simmer.
- I recommend that lobster and scallops be roughly chopped into some large and some small pieces. For presentation purposes you can reserve some nice looking whole claws and scallops.
- Heat olive oil in deep pan, add scallions and sauté 3-4 minutes over medium heat. Add rice, stir to coat well and continue sautéing and stirring until rice has absorbed the oil and appears translucent around the edges with a white spot in the center of each grain. Approximately 3 minutes.
- Lower heat to medium-low and add wine. Simmer and stir until wine is absorbed into rice. Stir in cut corn.
- Begin adding lobster stock into rice by the ladle full (or approximately 1/2 cup at a time). Stir and continue stirring constantly as broth is absorbed. Don't let the risotto get too soupy or too dry. Continue adding broth in this manner and stirring until rice is almost tender. Approximately 20 minutes.
- Just before rice reaches al dente texture, lower heat to simmer, stir in lobster and scallops. Cook another 5 minutes or until rice is al dente and scallops are translucent.
- Turn off heat. Stir in white pepper, salt, sherry, cream, cheese and 1/4 cup broth. Cover, let sit 5 minutes for flavors to blend and rice to absorb more broth. Stir and serve.

TRUFFLED LOBSTER RISOTTO
What could be better than the creamy smoothness of risotto with a hint of truffle combined with the elegance of lobster. If you need, or want, a show-off entree this is perfect for guests or that romantic dinner. There seems to be alot to this recipe but the result is worth it. I have prepared this using both warm and cold water lobster tails and I prefer the cold for its sweetness. For the truffle oil I have only used the black variety.

Steps:
- Fill a pot large enough to hold two lobsters with water and bring to a boil. Add the lobsters and cook for 5 minutes. Drain and remove the lobsters, letting them cool.
- Separate the claws and the tail from the body. Remove the intestines. Chop the body into quarters and cut the tail into 4 medallions, leaving it in the shell.
- In a large sauce pot, heat 4 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium heat. Add the lobster bodies and saute for 4 minutes until lightly browned on all sides. Add the green onions, garlic and ginger and saute until the onion is wilted. Add the curry powder and chili flakes and stir for 2 minutes. Pour in the plum wine and Port, stirring to disloge any bits that stick to the pan. Cook over high heat until the liquid reduces by half. Add the 14 ounces of chicken stock and reduce by half again.
- Press the sauce through a strainer, getting all the juices from the lobster and vegetables. Discard the lobster and vegetables. Pour the sauce into a medium-sized pot and heat over medium heat. Add the cream and reduce until it coats the back of a spoon. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste. Keep the sauce warm while making the risotto.
- In a 2-quart saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium heat. Add the vegetables and saute over until medium-tender. Add the saffron and wine and reduce by half. Add the rice and 1/4 cup of the chicken stock. Stir constantly until the liquid is absorbed. Repeat the procedure, adding 1/4 cup of chicken stock at a time, until all the liquid is absorbed. The rice should be al dente. If you prefer the rice cooked more, just add more liquid. Finish by stirring in the butter and Parmesan cheese.
- Heat a pan large enough to saute all the lobster. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the lobster. Cook only long enough to reheat the lobster, about three minutes. Add the sauce to the pan and stir in 2 tablespoons of butter. Remove from the heat.
- To serve, divide the risotto among four serving plates and arrange the lobster around the risotto. Pour the sauce over the lobster.
