How to Make Baked Stuffed Lobster

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 (1.5-2 lb) live lobster and parboil for 7 minutes.
2. Remove lobster from boiling water and immediately place in an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, pat dry.
3. Using a sharp, sturdy chef's knife, carefully slice down the center of the lobster, starting at the head and continuing through the tail.
4. Gently open the lobster and remove the stomach and tomalley (the green substance – optional, but adds flavor!). Rinse thoroughly.
5. Prepare your stuffing (see ingredient list for our simple recipe).
6. Generously fill the lobster cavity with the prepared stuffing.
7. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
8. Place the stuffed lobster on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
9. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the stuffing is golden brown and the lobster is heated through. Internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
10. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Remember to crack the claws with a nutcracker before serving!
