Categories     main-dish

Time 2h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (3 to 5-pound) live lobster
1 white onion, chopped fine, plus 1 white onion, finely chopped
7 garlic cloves, minced
Olive oil, for sauteing
3 cups white wine
2 quarts heavy whipping cream
2 cups arborio rice
2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon pepper
Chopped parsley leaves, for garnish

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.
  • Pour in enough water to just cover the rice. Cook until al dente, about 15 minutes. Add the rice to the lobster sauce and cook down for 15 minutes, or until the rice is creamy and tender. Season with salt and pepper.
  • To serve, spoon desired amount of risotto and place the lobster on top. Garnish with parsley.

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound (about 2 medium) frozen lobster tails, thawed
4 1/2 cups reduced-sodium chicken stock
4 tablespoon butter, at room temperature
1 cup finely chopped onion
1 1/2 cups Arborio rice
1/2 cup brandy
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the lobster tails and boil for 8 to 10 minutes until the shells curl and the lobster meat turns white. Drain, transfer to a cutting board, and cool for 15 minutes. Using kitchen shears or a sharp knife, cut through the top shell lengthwise. Remove the meat and cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan, bring the chicken stock to a boil. Keep hot over low heat.
  • In a large saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Cook until the butter begins to foam and then turns brown, about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Add the onion and cook, about 3 minutes. Add the rice and stir to coat with the butter. Add the brandy and simmer until the liquid has almost evaporated, about 3 minutes. Add 1/2 cup of 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. Cook until the rice is tender but still firm to the bite, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, the remaining butter and 2 tablespoons chives. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Transfer the risotto to a large serving bowl. Arrange the lobster meat on top of the risotto and garnish with the remaining chives.

LOBSTER RISOTTO



Lobster Risotto image

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.

TRUFFLED LOBSTER RISOTTO



Truffled Lobster Risotto image

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. This recipe is courtesy of Bon Appetit, January 1998
