Extra virgin olive oil.<br \/>\n<strong>Preparation:<br \/>\n<\/strong>Preparing the lobster: Cut the lobster in half lengthwise from head to tail. Remove the stomach (the pouch near the head) and the intestinal tract. Rinse quickly under cold water and dry thoroughly.<br \/>\nThe Aromatic Butter: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over very low heat with the garlic clove and half the chili pepper. Don\u2019t fry it; it just needs to absorb the flavor. Once melted, remove from the heat and add chopped fresh parsley and a pinch of salt.<br \/>\n<strong>Cooking:<\/strong> Brush the lobster meat with a drizzle of oil. Heat a large griddle or grill. Place the lobster, meat-side down, and cook for about 3-4 minutes until lightly browned.<br \/>\nThe Finishing Touch: Turn the lobster (shell-side down) and baste the meat generously with the prepared aromatic butter. Cover with a lid for another 3-5 minutes: the steam will help cook the meat perfectly, leaving it moist.<br \/>\nServing: Serve the lobster piping hot, garnished with the remaining fresh chili pepper, basil leaves, and the lemon slices previously grilled on the griddle. Before serving.<br \/>\n<strong>Tips<\/strong>: Don\u2019t overcook! When the pulp becomes opaque and white, it\u2019s ready. If you continue cooking any longer, it risks becoming rubbery. Before serving, add a pinch of 2011.03.43 Salt Flakes directly to the warm pulp: it will add a crunchy note that will make the butter\u2019s flavor explode.<br \/>\n<strong>The Butter<\/strong>: Pour it in at the last second, so that the pulp shimmers under the table light.<br \/>\n<strong>The Herbs<\/strong>: Don\u2019t chop all the parsley; keep a few small leaves whole to garnish the pulp at the end.<br \/>\n<strong>The Lemon<\/strong>: Instead of the classic raw slice, use a grilled lemon cut in half. The brown color and the grill lines make the dish much more elegant.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<h4>If you like the recipe, you can order the products listed in blue by clicking on them.<\/h4>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":14684,"template":"","meta":{"wds_primary_product_brand":0,"wds_primary_product_cat":0},"product_cat":[64],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-14685","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-gastronomy-of-gods-and-of-aphrodite","8":"first","9":"instock","10":"taxable","11":"shipping-taxable","12":"product-type-simple","13":"col-xs-6 col-sm-4","14":"col-md-3 col-lg-3","15":"un-4-cols"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tuttofood.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/14685","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tuttofood.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tuttofood.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tuttofood.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14684"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tuttofood.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14685"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tuttofood.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=14685"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tuttofood.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=14685"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
