Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Lobster tails
- 4 tablespoons Butter
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 packages (7 oz each) Shirataki noodles
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Parsley, chopped
Instructions
Start by preparing the lobster tails. Using kitchen scissors, cut through the center of each shell lengthwise and gently lift the meat out. Season the meat lightly with salt and pepper.
In a large pan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the lobster tails, meat side down, and sauté for about 4-5 minutes until the meat is opaque and cooked through. Remove the lobster from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Pour in the heavy cream, stir well, and let it simmer for about 3 minutes.
Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese to the pan, stirring continuously, until the sauce thickens. Stir in the lemon juice and adjust the seasoning with salt and black pepper to taste.
Prepare the shirataki noodles according to package instructions. Typically, this involves rinsing the noodles well under running water and then boiling them for a couple of minutes.
Once the noodles are prepared, add them to the creamy sauce, stirring well to coat the noodles thoroughly.
Chop the cooked lobster meat into bite-sized pieces and add them back to the pan, mixing them with the noodles and sauce.
Let the pasta cook together for an additional 2-3 minutes to ensure everything is heated through.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious low-carb creamy lobster pasta!
