Spicy Lobster Crostini
(Serves 4)
2 each 1½ lb. Maine lobsters
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ each lime, juice only
1 loaf French bread
2 tablespoons olive oil (as needed)
½ cup Parmesan cheese
Boil lobsters for 5 minutes. The lobsters should not be
completely cooked. Allow to cool. Remove meat from tails and
claws. Cut meat into small bite size pieces. Place lobster
meat in a non-metallic bowl and toss with olive oil and red
pepper flakes. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in
refrigerator for one hour. Coat a non-stick frying pan with
vegetable spray. Heat pan on medium high until it begins to
smoke. Add lobster and saute until the meat is golden brown.
The red peppers will cause a small of amount of smoke while
cooking. This will add to the flavor. Add the lime juice right
before removing from pan.
Slice bread into eight 1/2 slices. Brush both sides with olive
oil. Place on baking sheet. Put in oven and bake for 8 to 10
minutes, check frequently. When bread is light golden brown
remove from oven. Turn each piece over since they will be
slightly more toasted on the bottom. Place prepared lobster
meat on top of toast and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Place
back in oven for another 5 minutes or until cheese is melted
and lightly brown. Serve immediately.
