Summary: Celiac.com 05/25/2022 - Got a craving for something fancy, delicious, AND gluten-free? And easy? Okay, we've got you covered with this stunning lobster dish that is gluten-free, and surprisingly simple to make. Lobster shells are stuffed with cooked lobster in a creamy white wine sauce, then topped with Parmesan cheese and broiled until golden. It's an easy way to prepare lobster, and a great way to get fancy without too much trouble. Ingredients: 1 medium (1½ pound) cooked lobster 2 tablespoons butter 1 shallot, finely chopped 1⅜ cups fresh fish stock ¼ cup white wine ¼ cup double cream or crème fraîche ½ teaspoon hot spicy gluten-free mustard 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese Directions: Cut the lobster in half lengthwise, and remove the meat from the claws and tail, and set meat and shell aside. Remove any meat from the head and set aside. Cut all the meat up into pieces and place back into the shell. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot; cook and stir until tender. Mix in the fish stock, white wine and double cream. Bring to a boil, and cook until reduced by half. Mix in the mustard, lemon juice, parsley, salt and pepper. Heat your oven broiler. Place the lobster halves in a baking pan or dish. Spoon the sauce over the lobster meat in the shell. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top. Broil for 3 to 4 minutes, just until golden brown. Serve immediately.
