Pasta with Lobster and Cream

Pasta with Lobster and Cream is a luxurious yet simple dish, combining tender pasta with succulent lobster meat in a rich, creamy sauce. This Kosher American dish is perfect for a special occasion or a cozy dinner at home.

Ingredients

• Linguine - 200 grams
• Lobster meat - 200 grams, cooked and chopped
• Heavy cream - 1 cup (240 ml)
• Garlic - 3 cloves, minced
• Shallot - 1, finely chopped
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Butter - 2 tablespoons
• Fresh parsley - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Salt - to taste
• Black pepper - to taste
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
• Red pepper flakes - 1/2 teaspoon (optional)

Steps

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the linguine according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving 1/2 cup of the pasta water.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the shallot and garlic, sautéing until translucent and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
3. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the lemon juice, then add the chopped lobster meat, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
4. Add the cooked linguine to the skillet, tossing to combine. If the sauce seems too thick, add reserved pasta water a little at a time until desired consistency is reached.
5. Remove from heat and stir in the fresh parsley. Adjust seasoning if necessary, and serve immediately.
