Ingredients

1/4 cup dried bread crumbs
1/4 cup cornmeal
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1/2 pound sweet Italian sausage, cut across into 1/4-inch-thick slices
2 13 3/4-ounce cans artichoke hearts, well drained and quartered
2 1 1/4-pound lobsters, steamed, tail and claw meat removed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl, combine the bread crumbs, cornmeal, olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and pepper. Set aside. Cook the sausage in a medium-size skillet over medium-high heat until cooked through. Drain on paper toweling.
In a large bowl, combine the sausage, artichoke hearts and lobster meat. Toss with the remaining 3/4 teaspoon of salt, pepper and 3 tablespoons of the bread-crumb mixture. Place in a 9-inch pie plate and cover with the remaining crumbs. Bake until the gratin is hot and the crumbs are browned, about 30 minutes. Divide among 4 plates and serve immediately.
