Ingredients:

Before we start, let’s gather all the ingredients you’ll need to make Lobster alla Catalana:

  • 2 whole lobsters (approx. 1.5 pounds each)
  • 2 tomatoes, diced
  • 1 red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 capcicum, seeded and chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Preparing the Lobster:

– Begin by boiling a pot of water. Make sure there is enough water to submerge the lobsters completely.

– Once the water is boiling, carefully place the lobsters into the pot. Cover and cook for approximately 12 minutes.

– Remove the lobsters from the pot and let them cool for a few minutes.

– Using a sharp knife, split the lobsters in half lengthwise. Remove the gills and rinse under cold water to clean them thoroughly. Pat them dry with a paper towel.

2. Creating the Sauce:

– In a large bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, red onion, capcicum, minced garlic, extra virgin olive oil, and red wine vinegar.

– Season the sauce with salt and pepper according to your taste preferences. Mix well to ensure all the ingredients are evenly combined.

3. Grilling the Lobster:

– Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

– Brush each lobster half with the sauce mixture, making sure to cover the entire surface.

– Place the lobster halves on the grill, flesh side down, and cook for approximately 5 minutes. The flesh should turn opaque and slightly charred.

– Carefully flip the lobster halves and brush the remaining sauce on the shell side. Grill for an additional 3-4 minutes.

4. Serving the Lobster alla Catalana:

– Once cooked, remove the lobster halves from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.

– Garnish with a sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley for added flavor and presentation.

– Lobster alla Catalana is traditionally served with crusty bread to soak up the flavorful sauce. Enjoy!
