Fried lobster
Fried lobster is a dish where lobster meat is breaded and deep-fried to create a crispy, delicious treat. It's a popular way to enjoy lobster in a different way than the traditional steamed or grilled methods.
Ingredients
- 4 whole lobsters
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
- Begin by preparing the lobsters. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the lobsters in half lengthwise, keeping the shells intact.
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs and milk together to create an egg wash.
- Dip each lobster half into the egg wash, then dredge in the seasoned flour mixture, making sure to coat evenly.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large skillet to 350°F (180°C).
- Carefully place the breaded lobster halves into the hot oil, shell side down. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the lobster meat is opaque and the coating is golden brown.
- Remove the fried lobster from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
- Serve the fried lobster hot with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
- Enjoy!
