Lobster Breakfast Tacos with Soft Scrambled Eggs, Goat Cheese and Avocado Cream

Serves 4-6

3 1 /2 lbs live lobsters

Avocado Cream

  • 1 large, ripe avocado
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

Eggs

  • 8 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon butter, at room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon chives, finely chopped
  • 1/2 lb goat cheese
  • Salt & pepper
  • 8 8-inch tortillas, corn or flour
  • 1 lime
  • 1 bunch of cilantro
  1. Prepare an ice bath in a large bowl filled with water/ice. Drop lobster in the boiling water, and cook for 10 minutes.
  2. Remove and allow to cool on a baking tray for a few minutes.
  3. Crack your lobsters and remove the meat from the claws and body. Cut the lobster into 1/2 inch pieces, keeping the claws intact. Set aside.
  4. In a food processor, combine avocado, yogurt, lime, salt, and spices. Process for 1 – 2 minutes until smooth. Set aside until you’re ready to assemble your tacos.
  5. Lightly grease a large saucepan with oil and crack the eggs into it.
  6. Place the pan on a cold burner, and turn the heat to low.
  7. Whisk eggs gently and continuously. If they start to stick, or the pan gets too hot, remove from the heat for a few seconds to cool and then continue whisking. After about 5 minutes, fold in butter, chives, 1/2 cup of goat cheese, and lobster and season with salt and pepper. Reserve the claws.
  8. Fill tortillas with 1 tablespoon of avocado cream and 2 tablespoons of eggs. Garnish with lime, goats cheese, fresh cilantro, and a lobster claw.

If you are looking for a more simple recipe, here is an easy breakfast hash with lobster:

Dyers Island Lobster Hash

Ingredients:

  • 4 red bliss potatoes
  • 1 large onion (I like sweet onions)
  • 1 splash Olive oil
  • 1/4 cup flat leaf parsley rough chopped
  • 4 one and a half-pound lobsters, cooked meat and their walking legs (use more lobster if you want a richer hash)
  • 1 pinch Salt and pepper

 

Directions:

  1. Chop the onion and sauté in olive oil until soft.
  2.  Dice potatoes (skin on) into 1/4 inch cubes and sauté until lightly brown in olive oil with the walking legs (this adds lobster flavor). Remove potatoes, season with salt and pepper and drain on a paper towel. Discard the legs.
  3.  Chop lobster into 1/4 inch pieces
  4. Mix onions, potatoes, lobster and parsley in a bowl.
  5.  Adjust seasoning to taste
  6.  Reheat and crisp individual servings of hash in a very hot pan with a little olive oil.
  7. Serve hash topped with poached or over easy egg.
