Ingredients

  • 2 whole lobsters (about 1.5 lbs each), shelled and cleaned
  • 1 tablespoon turmeric powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1 orange, juiced
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 small red chili, sliced
  • Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish

Мethod of preparation

Begin by preparing the lobsters. Use a sharp knife or kitchen scissors to remove the shells and devein the tails if necessary. Pat them dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, combine turmeric, salt, and black pepper. Rub this spice mixture over the lobster meat, ensuring they are evenly coated. In a separate bowl, mix together the juices of the lemon, lime, and orange. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic, grated ginger, and sliced chili, sautéing until the aromatic ingredients are just beginning to brown. Place lobster tails in the skillet, flesh side down. Sear for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown, then flip them over. Pour the citrus juice mixture into the skillet, allowing it to simmer and slightly thicken for another 3-4 minutes. This will allow the lobster to soak up the citrusy flavors. Remove from heat once the meat is opaque and cooked through. Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with fresh cilantro leaves. Serve immediately to enjoy the warmth of turmeric and the vibrant zest of citrus infused into tender lobster meat.
