Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 teaspoons salt
4 frozen lobster tails (about 10 ounces each)
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
4 medium green onions, sliced (1/4 cup)
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups half-and-half
1/4 cup cocktail sauce
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon ground mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon red pepper sauce
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
1/3 cup dry bread crumbs

Steps:

  • Heat 2 quarts water and 2 teaspoons salt to boiling in 6-quart Dutch oven; add lobster tails. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer 8 to 10 minutes or until lobster tails turn bright red and meat is opaque. Immediately plunge lobster tails into cold water to stop cooking. (Lobster will not be thoroughly cooked but will continue to cook during baking step.)
  • Meanwhile, heat oven to 450°. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in 2-quart saucepan over medium heat. Cook onions in butter about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onions are tender. Stir in flour; cook and stir until mixture is smooth and bubbly. Gradually stir in half-and-half, stirring constantly. Heat to boiling; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in cocktail sauce, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pepper sauce until blended; remove from heat.
  • Cut and remove membrane from under side of each lobster tail, using kitchen scissors; discard membrane. Remove lobster meat from shells; reserve shells. Cut lobster into chunks; stir lobster into sauce until blended. Fill reserved shells with lobster mixture. Place shells in ungreased shallow baking dish. (If necessary, place crumpled aluminum foil between lobster tails to prevent shells from tipping.)
  • Mix 2 tablespoons melted butter and the bread crumbs until blended. Sprinkle over lobster mixture. Bake uncovered about 10 minutes or until heated through and bread crumbs are browned.

I found that the lobster tails cooked a little faster than the recipe indicated, so I had to keep an eye on them. Other than that, the recipe was easy to follow and the lobster tails were delicious.

These deviled lobster tails are a bit pricey to make, but they're worth it for a special occasion. I served them at my Christmas dinner and they were a huge success.

I didn't have any Dijon mustard, so I used regular yellow mustard instead. It worked just fine and the lobster tails were still delicious.

I used a combination of fresh and frozen lobster tails, and they both worked well. The fresh ones had a slightly better flavor, but the frozen ones were still very good.

I love the crispy crumb topping on these lobster tails. It adds a nice textural contrast to the tender lobster meat. Yum!
