Step-by-Step Instructions for Buttered Lobster Pasta
- Gather all your ingredients for Buttered Lobster Pasta. Finely chop the garlic and parsley, and set them aside. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil on high heat.
- Once the water has reached a rolling boil, add your selected pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve about a cup of the starchy pasta water before draining.
- In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat until it becomes bubbly and fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Add the minced garlic, sautéing for about 1 minute until fragrant and golden.
- Gradually stir in the heavy cream and allow it to come to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat. Sprinkle in the freshly grated Parmesan cheese, stirring constantly until melted and creamy. Adjust consistency with reserved pasta water if needed.
- Fold in the cooked lobster meat and lemon juice, warming through on low heat for about 2-3 minutes, ensuring the lobster remains tender.
- Add the drained pasta to the skillet, tossing in the creamy lobster sauce until well coated. Garnish with chopped parsley and extra Parmesan cheese before serving warm.
