Ingredients
4 servings
- •1 large (2 pound) fresh lobster
- •3 tablespoons butter
- •1 large onion, chopped
- •3 cloves garlic, chopped
- •1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
- •4 tablespoons olive oil
- •4 teaspoons salt
- •1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- •1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- •1 cup heavy cream
- •1 (8 ounce) package dried spaghetti
- •1 tablespoon butter
- •1 clove garlic, minced
- •1 bunch fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add lobster and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, until bright red.
- As soon as lobster starts cooking, melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and 3 cloves of garlic. Cook and stir just to release liquid. Do not let them brown.
- When lobster comes out of the pot, place it on a cutting board and use a big knife to cut it in half lengthwise. Place halves meaty side down into the skillet with onion and garlic. Cook for about 3 minutes.
- Bring another pot of water to a boil and season with a little salt. Add spaghetti and cook for 8 minutes, or until tender. If you want to save time and a pot, you could boil pasta in lobster water since it is already boiling, just add salt.
- Add tomatoes to the skillet and turn the heat up to high to bring to a boil. Add olive oil, salt, pepper, and cinnamon. Cook, stirring constantly for 5 to 7 minutes. Slowly pour in cream, stirring constantly. Sauce will become a nice pink color. Turn the heat down to medium-low. Keep warm, stirring occasionally until pasta is done.
- Drain spaghetti and place on a large serving plate. Stir in remaining butter and garlic. Pour tomato sauce over spaghetti and arrange the two lobster halves in the center. Sprinkle all over with parsley and serve.
