Introduction to labor day recipes with LOBSTER from Nikita's Kitchen!

 Kick start/prep YOUR Labor Day Weekend WITH Grilled Lobster AND Chilli Garlic Butter!

When I originally made this recipe I was grilling with my family and friends and bought 8 pounds of lobster!

(That's approximately 4 WHOLE lobsters! )

INGREDIENTS:

  •     ½ stick butter, unsalted, softened
  •     2 jalepenos
  •     1 teaspoon red chilli flakes
  •     5 cloves garlic
  •     Zest of 1 lemon
  •     1 tbsp finely chopped (or can use dried) parsley
  •     Salt and black pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS:

  • Combine ingredients for chilli butter in a separate bowl and keep aside. 
  • Grill lobsters in boiling water for about 5 minutes, until the shells are bright in color.
  • Split lobster in lengthwise through the head and tail
  • Scoop out and discard the yellow-green tomalley
  • Heat a grill to high.
  • Rub tails, halves, and claws with chilli butter
  • Place the meat, flesh side down, and claws on the hottest part of the grill
  • Cook until slightly charred, about 4-5 minutes.
