ok this is not an everyday kinda dish, but for an occasional treat it is truly delicious....My boys love it so...and they often poke their heads into the pantry and chant lobstah killah .... but the first bit makes it all worth it. Heaven!
get two live lobsters and boil in large pot for 8 minutes remove and put in a big bowl with ice and water to stop the cooking.
stock
onion cut in big chunks don't even peel
carrots (2)
2 stalks celery
pepper corn
shells from the lobster
fresh thyme sprigs
fresh rosemary sprigs
salt to taste
4 cups water or enough to cover
a head of garlic cut in half...
let boil for two hours
strain and then reduce on the stove till it reduced by 1/2
shallots
garlic
corn on the cob
chives
6 ears of corn kernels removed saute in a bit of evoo and butter til just cooked...remove and set aside
in same pan add evoo diced shallot and diced garlic clove saute...add the stock that has reduced and thickened....
cook fettuccine as directed on package but take it out a minute before it's done...add it to the stock and cook add the corn and at the last minute add the reserved lobster meat...I didn't add bacon but I think I will next time....and a touch of cream...it was so like my lobster corn chowder... topped it with some chives...was good
