  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 47 minute

Ingredients

– 2 live lobsters (about 1.5 pounds each)
– 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
– 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, finely chopped
– 4 scallions, chopped
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon rice wine or sherry
– 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
– 1 teaspoon sugar
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Creating Easy Ginger Scallion Lobster is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Lobsters: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lobsters and cook for about 8-10 minutes until they turn bright red. Remove them from the pot and let them cool.

2. Extract the Meat: Once the lobsters are cool enough to handle, carefully crack the shells and extract the meat. Cut the meat into bite-sized pieces.

3. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.

4. Sauté Aromatics: Add the chopped ginger and garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

5. Add Scallions: Toss in the chopped scallions and continue to stir-fry for another minute.

6. Combine Sauces: In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, rice wine (or sherry), oyster sauce, and sugar. Pour this mixture into the skillet.

7. Add Lobster Meat: Gently fold the lobster pieces into the skillet, ensuring they are evenly coated with the sauce. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, just until heated through.

8. Season: Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, if necessary.

9. Garnish: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh cilantro, if desired.

10. Serve Immediately: Transfer the lobster to a serving platter and enjoy!
