Best Maritime Lobster Casserole Recipes

LOBSTER CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 2 quart baking dish.
• Melt butter in a medium sized pot over low heat. Saute the lobster meat in butter until it starts to change color. Do not cook too long or too fast, or the lobster meat will toughen. With a slotted spoon, remove lobster meat from pan and set aside.
• To the remaining butter in the pot, stir in the flour, dry mustard, salt and pepper. Gradually whisk in cream and milk. Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Return lobster meat to the pot. Tear the bread into small pieces and stir into the mixture. Pour into prepared baking dish.
• Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until bubbly and delicately browned.

LAZY MAN'S LOBSTER CASSEROLE RECIPE - (3.8/5)

Steps:

• Lightly saute mushrooms, shallots, and garlic in olive oil. Stir in lobster and sherry. Set aside to be able to use the same pan for stuffing preparation. Melt butter and combine crumbled crackers and parsley. Set aside 1/2 of the stuffing mixture. Add lobster mixture to remaining stuffing in pan. Combine well. Slowly stir in cream. Pour into casserole dish and top with the remaining stuffing. Bake 10-15 minutes in a preheated 325°F oven or until topping is lightly browned. Serving suggestion: As an added bonus, while the casserole is baking, saute extra lobster claw meat to use with lemon as a garnish on top of the cooked casserole. And, for a very casual presentation, bake the recipe in a non-stick oven-proof frying pan, using that as your serving dish at the table. Since this recipe is a very rich version of Lazy Mans Lobster, it is best served with a light side dish of a green garden salad or a summer fruit salad.

LAZY LOBSTER CASSEROLE WITH BUTTERY RITZ TOPPING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Put 6 ovenproof dishes on a sheet pan and set them aside.
• Add Ritz and oyster crackers to a food processor. Pulse until it becomes crumbs. I like some texture, so I don't pulse it completely. Pour into a bowl and add melted butter and parsley. Mix until completely combined, set aside.
• Heat butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. When the butter has melted, add garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add sherry and lemon. Season with salt and pepper.
• If using raw lobster meat, add meat and the juices to the pan cook until just until the lobster begins to firm up, about two to three minutes. Remove from heat.
• Divide the lobster and butter mixture evenly between the dishes and top with a generous amount of cracker topping.
• (If using cooked lobster, add lobster to dishes and prepare butter mixture as directed, and pour over cooked lobster.)
• Put the baking sheet in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes or until the lobster is hot and the topping is golden brown. Serve with lemon wedges and more parsley.
