Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Step 1: Prepare Lobster Start by cooking the fresh lobster if not pre-cooked. Boil a pot of salted water, then add the lobster and cook for about 8-10 minutes until bright red. Once cooked, remove it from the water, let it cool for a few minutes, then chop the meat into bite-sized pieces, ensuring to set aside all the delicious juices for later use.
  2. Step 2: Sauté Garlic In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, toss in 2-3 cloves of minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant and lightly golden.
  3. Step 3: Add Wine Pour in half a cup of dry white wine into the pan with the sautéed garlic. Allow the mixture to simmer gently for about 3-4 minutes, or until the wine reduces by half.
  4. Step 4: Incorporate Tomatoes Next, add a can of diced tomatoes (about 14 ounces) to the saucepan, stirring well to combine. Let the mixture simmer for another 5-7 minutes.
  5. Step 5: Final Touch Lower the heat and stir in one cup of heavy cream and the prepared lobster meat. Gently heat the sauce for about 3-5 minutes until everything is warmed through, making sure not to let it boil.
  6. Step 6: Serve Serve the Best Lobster Sauce immediately over your choice of pasta, such as fettuccine or linguine, or drizzle it over grilled seafood.
