Tomorrow is National Lobster Day and we at Cape Porpoise Lobster Co. can’t think of a better excuse to treat oneself to a lobster dinner! We aren’t quite sure where this special day got its start, but that isn’t going to stop us from celebrating. The rich, gourmet flavors of lobster should be enjoyed at every opportunity, and shouldn’t just be limited to traditional recipes.
To properly celebrate National Lobster Day, we have put together a list of some delicious – and completely unique – lobster recipes for you to try.
Lobster Pot Pie
Cooked in 8 oz. ramekins and paired with a crisp summer salad, lobster pot pies are the perfect way to introduce this gourmet crustacean to your children. Prep should take less than thirty minutes, and then all you have to do is pour the mixture into your tiny pots and bake for 20 minutes – giving you plenty of time to toss together your salad.
Lobster Burgers
Searching for a lobster recipe that can be paired with your favorite beer and enjoyed on the back patio? Look no further than the lobster burger. A combination of lobster meat, shrimp, seasonings and bread crumbs, this burger is a mouthwatering seafood sensation. Topped with bacon, avocado and a flavorful basil corn and peach salsa, it makes for an unforgettable meal.
Blue Cheese Lobster Beignets
This scrumptious lobster appetizer is the perfect way to begin a family dinner – with spicy avocado cream and a garden vegetable sauté on the side! Filled with lobster meat, cream cheese and blue cheese, these beignets are fried perfection.
Lobster Hash
Whether you are looking to incorporate lobster into your breakfast plan or are a fan of doing breakfast for dinner, lobster hash is the way to go! A hearty combination of red potatoes, lobster meat, onions and parsley, the toughest part of this recipe is being able to flip your over easy egg.
