Pasta with Lobster and Onions

Pasta with Lobster and Onions is a luxurious yet simple dish that combines the sweetness of fresh lobster with caramelized onions, all tossed in al dente pasta. This Kosher American pasta dish is perfect for a special occasion or a delightful weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

• Pasta (spaghetti or linguine) - 200 grams
• Lobster meat (cooked, chopped) - 200 grams
• Onion (medium, thinly sliced) - 1
• Garlic (minced) - 2 cloves
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Butter (unsalted) - 1 tablespoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Parsley (fresh, chopped) - 2 tablespoons
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
• Red pepper flakes (optional) - 1/4 teaspoon

Steps

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized and golden brown, about 10-12 minutes.
3. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4. Stir in the chopped lobster meat and cook for 3-4 minutes, just until heated through. Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if using.
5. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet along with the reserved pasta water and lemon juice. Toss everything together to combine, allowing the pasta to absorb the flavors.
6. Remove from heat, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve immediately.
