Healthy Steamed Lobster Tails for One image

I modified a recipe I found to come up with this for a new diet I'm on. Sounds like a healthier alternative to all the buttered lobster tail recipes I found.

Time 30m

Yield 1 lobster tail, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 frozen lobster tail
2 large mushrooms, cut into slices
1 tablespoon green onion, chopped
1 stalk celery, thinly sliced
1/2 cup broccoli, trimmed, cut into florets
1 tablespoon reduced sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth

Steps:

  • Defrost lobster tail in fridge for 24hrs.
  • Remove thin underside membrane from lobster-tails with scissors.
  • Push bamboo skewer length wise through tail to prevent curling.
  • Place colander over boiling water in large pot, or use steamer.
  • Place lobster tails in colander; place vegetables on top and around tails.
  • Combine soy sauce, broth, and water; brush over tails and vegetables.
  • Cover pot; steam 20 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender and lobster meat loses translucency and is opaque.
