Lobster Truffle Pasta Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 pound pappardelle
- 1 stick unsalted butter divided
- 2 cloves garlic very thinly sliced
- 2 8oz lobster tails thawed, shelled and sliced into 1 inch pieces
- 1 cup heavy cream or 1 cup fat-free half and half whisked with ½ tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 ounce sliced black truffles
- ¾ teaspoon truffle salt
- 2 ounces Parmesan cheese
- Freshly grated white or black pepper
- Chopped fresh parsley
Instructions:
-
Bring a large pot of regular salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions. One minute before draining the pasta, scoop out one cup of the pasta water and set aside.
-
While the pasta is cooking, melt 7 tablespoons of butter (reserving 1 tablespoon for the end) in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat.
-
Add the sliced garlic and let it saute for 3 minutes until it is just softened. Add the lobster tails and stir until the lobster is just opaque, about 4-5 minutes.
-
Stir in the heavy cream (or the half and half mixture), the sliced truffle and truffle salt.
-
Let the mixture cook for 3 minutes, lower the heat to low temperature and add the pasta to the cream mixture, tossing the pasta around in the sauce until it is well coated, about 2 minutes.
-
Add ½ cup of the pasta water and keep tossing until the pasta is glossy and the sauce is not runny nor too thick.
-
Remove the pan from the heat.
-
Plate the pasta and sprinkle the cheese, pepper and parsley on each dish.
- Enjoy!
