Ingredients:
- 4 oz lobster meat (lump/claw)
- 4 oz unsalted butter
- 2 oz minced garlic
- 1 oz minced Calabrian chilies
- 1/2 lemon
- 1/2 oz white or low salt soy sauce
- 1 large slice sturdy whole grain bread, toasted
- Micro shisho and micro scallions for garnish
Directions:
Melt butter in a pan over medium heat. Add garlic and chilies and saute for 2 minutes. Add lobster meat and squeeze 1/2 fresh lemon into mixture cook for 2 to 3 minutes until lobster is rosy and firm. Carefully spoon lobster meat onto toasted bread and then pour remaining butter around the bread to create a pool. Drizzle soy over lobster meat.
Lush uses lovely hydroponically-grown micro greens for garnish, but if you can’t find those, finely chopped parsley or scallion tops will do nicely.
