Grilled Lobster With Lime Butter And Mango Salsa Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Plunge the lobsters into the boiling water, cook for 8 minutes. Remove carefully and submerge in a bowl of ice water to immediately stop the cooking. Split the lobsters in half lengthwise and rinse out the head cavity and any veins that may be in the tail. Set aside.
• Toss the papayas, mangos and tomatoes in a mixing bowl with the lime juice and cayenne and salt, to taste. Allow to sit for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat.
• When ready to serve, brush a small amount of oil on the lobster meat and place the lobsters meat side down on the hot grill. Grill until lobster meat is lightly charred, about 4 minutes. Turn and cook the shell side until lobster is heated through, about 3 minutes more. Remove the lobster meat from the shell. Add the mint to salsa, mix, and put on serving plates. Serve the lobster meat on top of the salsa.

Steps:

• Heat a wide saute pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Saute the shallots for 3 to 5 minutes, or until slightly golden. Add the garlic and chiles and saute, stirring constantly, for 1 minute more. Add the cumin, paprika and cayenne and cook, stirring, for about 2 minutes more, until the aromas are released but the spices are not burned. Remove pan from heat and add lime juice, butter to taste, salt and pepper. Set the mixture aside while you preheat a broiler or prepare a grill for highheat cooking.
• Cut lobsters in half lengthwise and season with salt and pepper. Grill at high heat for approximately 8 minutes, shell side down. Then reduce the heat or move the lobsters away from the hottest part of the fire, rotating them 180 degrees to help them cook evenly, but keeping the shell side down. Grill at low heat for 5 minutes more. Spoon the spice mixture over the lobsters at the end of grilling for the last few minutes. Serve immediately with plenty of lime wedges.

Steps:

• Kill lobsters by plunging them headfirst into salted boiling water and cooking for 1 minute. Remove, and drain.
• Place lobsters on a medium-hot grill. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally to avoid burning the shells.
• Crack a claw to see if it is fully cooked (the meat should be opaque). If not, detach claws, and return to grill for a few minutes more. Using kitchen scissors, split lobsters lengthwise by cutting along underside of tail, leaving back of shell intact. Scrape out red coral, if any, and green tomalley, and combine with melted butter for a dipping sauce, if desired. Keep lobsters warm on a platter covered with foil until ready to serve. Garnish with lemon wedges and serve with melted butter, if desired.
