Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pounds fresh Florida lobster tails
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 (28-ounce) can tomato sauce
1 cup fish stock
1/2 cup parsley leaves, finely chopped

1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Clean and wash the fresh Florida lobster tails. Cut your lobster tails into pieces approximately 1 1/2 inches. If you leave the lobster in the shell your Creole will be a lot tastier.

Then add your tomato sauce, fish stock, parsley, cooking wine, Scotch bonnet peppers (if you desire added spice), vinegar, hot sauce, salt, pepper and laurel leaf.

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h40m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 medium jalapenos, finely diced
2 extra-large tomatoes, finely diced
1 large red onion, finely diced
Juice of 2 medium limes
2 ounces chopped fresh cilantro
15 poblano peppers
1 medium onion, diced
2 ounces plus 1/2 cup unsalted butter
8 cloves garlic, minced
One 48-ounce can chicken stock
4 sprigs fresh cilantro, chopped
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon taco seasoning
1 teaspoon salt and pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
One 8-ounce spiny Florida lobster tail, shelled
1/2 cup white wine
Three 6-inch corn tortillas
4 ounces shredded Cheddar-jack cheese
3 large tomatoes, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
Lemon wedge and fresh cilantro sprig, for serving

Steps:

  • For the pico de gallo: Mix jalapenos, tomatoes and onions in a bowl. Stir in lime juice and cilantro. Chill for 30 minutes.
  • For the roasted poblano sauce: Roast poblanos on a char-broiler until skin is black on all sides. Transfer to a pan and cover with plastic wrap for 15 minutes to further sweat the poblanos. Under running water, peel and clean poblanos and remove all seeds and stems.
  • Saute onion in 2 ounces butter until it starts to caramelize, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes. Add a cup of chicken stock to cool. Remove mixture to a blender and puree, then transfer to a saucepot. Add poblanos to blender in batches and puree, adding more chicken stock as needed to loosen, then combine with ingredients in the pot. Add cilantro, cumin, taco seasoning, salt and pepper to pot and bring to boil. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Make a roux by adding flour to remaining 1/2 cup butter in a saute pan and cooking slowly to a golden hue, about 10 minutes. Thicken sauce to desired thickness by adding roux to pot.
  • For the enchiladas: Preheat oven to 420 degrees F.
  • Cut lobster into medium bite-sized pieces and par-cook in white wine in a pan 1 to 2 minutes. Drain and divide into 3 portions. Cover a sizzle plate with 1 cup poblano sauce (save remainder for another use). Place corn tortillas on a hot grill or saute pan and warm about 10 seconds per side to soften, then remove. Form tortillas into 3 enchiladas with lobster and some shredded cheese. Place on sizzle plate and top with more cheese and 1/4 cup tomatoes. Bake, 5 minutes. Transfer enchiladas to a plate with a spatula, then push cooked sauce on top of enchiladas. Add a ramekin of pico de gallo on the side (save remainder for another use), a lemon wedge and a sprig of cilantro and serve.

Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 uncooked frozen lobster tails (1 1/2 pounds total), thawed, cut in half lengthwise, each half cut into thirds with shell intact
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/4 cup olive oil
1/3 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons chopped green bell pepper
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1/4 teaspoon paprika
2 large plum tomatoes, seeded, diced
1/2 cup canned tomato purée
3/4 cup bottled clam juice
1/2 cup dry Sherry wine
1 bay leaf
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 pound stone crab claws, cracked

Steps:

  • Place thawed lobster and fresh lime juice in medium bowl; toss to coat. Let stand 15 minutes, tossing lobster occasionally.
  • Heat olive oil in heavy large pot over high heat. Add lobster pieces and any accumulated juices. Sauté until lobster shells turn bright orange, about 4 minutes. Using slotted spoon, return lobster to same bowl. Reduce heat to medium. Add chopped onion and chopped bell pepper to pot; sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Add chopped garlic cloves, fresh parsley, and paprika and sauté 1 minute. Add diced tomatoes and tomato purée. Cook until juices thicken, stirring frequently, about 8 minutes. Add clam juice, dry Sherry, and bay leaf. Season to taste with salt. Add cayenne pepper. Bring mixture to boil, then add stone crab claws and reserved lobster with any accumulated juices. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until lobster meat is cooked through and tender, about 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh or frozen lobster meat for the best flavor. Thaw frozen lobster meat in the refrigerator overnight before using.
  • Be sure to remove the lobster meat from the shell before cooking. You can use a lobster cracker or kitchen shears to do this.
  • Cook the lobster meat in a flavorful sauce. This recipe uses a Creole-style sauce, but you can also use a tomato-based sauce, a white wine sauce, or a lemon-butter sauce.
  • Serve the lobster enchiladas with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and shredded cheese.

Conclusion:

Lobster Creole-style enchiladas are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion.
