Ingredients:

  • 6g green tea bbq seasonings
  • 2 whole lobsters (about 1.5 pounds each), live
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 jalapeños, seeded and finely chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 1 cup fish stock or water
  • 1/4 cup hot sauce (such as Tabasco)
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

Prepare the Lobsters:

  • Start by seasoning the lobsters with the green tea bbq seasonings, a pinch of salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Let them sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.

Cook the Lobsters:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lobsters and cook for 8-10 minutes until they turn bright red. Remove the lobsters from the pot and let them cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, remove the meat from the shells and cut into large chunks.

Make the Sauce:

  • In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, jalapeños, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.

Add Tomato Sauce and Stock:

  • Stir in the tomato sauce and fish stock or water. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Add Spices and Acid:

  • Stir in the hot sauce and lime juice. Season the sauce with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

Combine Lobster and Sauce:

  • Add the lobster meat to the skillet with the sauce. Toss to coat the lobster meat evenly with the spicy sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the lobster to absorb the flavors of the sauce.

Garnish and Serve:

  • Transfer the spicy lobster to a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro for a pop of color and freshness.

Enjoy Your Spicy Lobster:

  • Serve your delicious spicy lobster as a main course. The combination of tender lobster meat, the rich spicy sauce, and the unique flavors of green tea bbq seasonings creates a delightful and satisfying meal. This dish is perfect for a special occasion or a seafood lover's feast. Enjoy!
