Lobster
(serves 25 as appetizer)
The Downeast old-timers tell of eating lobster
with nothing but vinegar -- it was just the
way it was done along the Maine coast years
ago. This is our contemporary variation of an
old theme.
2 pounds cooked Maine lobster meat
1/3 cup cider vinegar
2/3 cup lime juice, freshly squeezed
1/2 cup lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1/3 cup pickled jalapeno slices
2 teaspoons salt
4 each bell peppers
2 medium Spanish onions
8-10 cilantro leaves
1 head Romaine lettuce, wash & dry
Combine the first six ingredients in a glass
bowl.
Remove seeds from bell peppers. Cut peppers
and onions into 1-inch cubes; toss with other
ingredients in bowl. Cover and let marinate in
the refrigerator 24 hours.
Before serving, thread the pieces of lobster,
bell pepper and onion alternately onto
skewers. Serve chilled immediately on a bed of
crisp greens and garnish with a few sprigs of
cilantro as a tasty appetizer. This also
becomes an elegant main course when served
over pasta or salad.
