Ingredients

8 ounces of linguine
4 tbs butter
2 4-5 ounce lobster tails shells removed and cut into pieces
1/2 cup your favorite white wine
4-6 cloves of garlic pressed
the juice and zest of 1 lemon
salt and pepper to taste
fresh parsley and Parmesan cheese to garnish

Instructions

Cook the linguine according to the directions on the package.
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the garlic to the skillet and cook until just fragrant.
Add the lobster and saute it, stirring constantly until the lobster is cooked through and opaque- about 3 minutes.
Then add the white wine and bring it to a simmer, scraping off the bottom of the pan with a sturdy spoon to deglaze it.
Let it simmer for 3 minutes.
Add the cooked pasta, then give everything a toss and finish with the remainder of the lemon juice and the lemon zest.
Sprinkle on some parsley and Parmesan cheese for a finishing touch.
Enjoy!
