LOBSTER BRIE PHYLLO PACKETS

Categories appetizer

Time 1h10m

Yield 8 servings of 2 appetizers each

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

8 sheets phyllo dough (based on 18 by 14-inch sheets which are often sold in packs of 18 to 20)
1/2 cup melted butter
2 lobster tails, poached and finely chopped
1 small wheel (about 8-ounces) brie cheese, cut into small pieces
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
2 teaspoons chopped fresh chives
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. If phyllo was frozen, make sure it is completely defrosted before handling it. Once removed from package, you will need to cover phyllo with waxed paper and a damp towel to prevent it from drying out. Lay out each dough sheet and brush on butter. Fold in half, brush again, fold in half, cut in half. (Each dough sheet should yield 2 rectangles, roughly 4 by 4 inches, so you will have 16 squares.) In mixing bowl, combine lobster, cheese, parsley and chives and season with salt and pepper. Place mixture on each square of dough. Bring up corners into smaller square packet and brush more butter on top. Bake in oven until golden brown.

Tips:

To ensure even cooking, make sure the lobster meat and brie cheese are cut into uniform pieces.
Don't overcook the lobster meat, as it can become tough and rubbery. It should be cooked just until it is opaque throughout.
Use a good quality brie cheese that is ripe but not too soft. If the cheese is too soft, it will be difficult to work with and may ooze out of the tartlets.
If you don't have a tart pan, you can use a muffin tin. Just be sure to grease the cups well so that the tartlets don't stick.
Top the tartlets with fresh herbs or microgreens for a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

These warm lobster and brie tartlets are the perfect appetizer for any special occasion. They are easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With their flaky crust, creamy filling, and succulent lobster, they are sure to leave your guests wanting more. So next time you're looking for a delicious and impressive appetizer, give these tartlets a try. You won't be disappointed!
