Description
A delightful lobster spaghetti dish with chili breadcrumbs that brings gourmet flavors to your table.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces spaghetti
- 2 lobster tails, cooked and meat removed
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon red chili flakes (adjust to taste)
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Zest of 1 lemon
- Juice of ½ lemon
- Grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- If the lobster tails are not pre-cooked, steam or boil them until fully cooked, usually taking about 5-7 minutes. Allow them to cool, then remove the meat and chop it into bite-sized pieces.
- In a large skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, but do not let it burn.
- Stir in the red chili flakes and cook for an additional minute for added flavor.
- Add the cooked spaghetti and lobster pieces into the skillet. Toss well to combine with the garlic and chili oil. Season with salt, pepper, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
- In a separate pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the breadcrumbs and stir continuously until golden brown and crispy. Season with a pinch of salt and extra red chili flakes if you like it spicy.
- Plate the Lobster Spaghetti and top generously with the chili breadcrumbs. Garnish with chopped parsley and grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
Notes
Taste before seasoning and adjust chili flakes according to heat preference.
