Cooking Directions
-
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add lobster and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, until bright red.
-
As soon as lobster starts cooking, melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and 3 cloves of garlic. Cook and stir just to release liquid. Do not let them brown.
-
When lobster comes out of the pot, place it on a cutting board and use a big knife to cut it in half lengthwise. Place halves meaty side down into the skillet with onion and garlic. Cook for about 3 minutes.
-
Bring another pot of water to a boil and season with a little salt. Add spaghetti and cook for 8 minutes, or until tender. If you want to save time and a pot, you could boil pasta in lobster water since it is already boiling, just add salt.
-
Add tomatoes to the skillet and turn the heat up to high to bring to a boil. Add olive oil, salt, pepper, and cinnamon. Cook, stirring constantly for 5 to 7 minutes. Slowly pour in cream, stirring constantly. Sauce will become a nice pink color. Turn the heat down to medium-low. Keep warm, stirring occasionally until pasta is done.
-
Drain spaghetti and place on a large serving plate. Stir in remaining butter and garlic. Pour tomato sauce over spaghetti and arrange the two lobster halves in the center. Sprinkle all over with parsley and serve.
Tips
If you wish to purchase an already cooked lobster, boil it for 3 to 4 minutes just to warm it up.
