Notes

High-quality ingredients are key—use fresh lobster, real Parmesan, and full-fat cream for the best results. Don’t skip the lemon juice; it brightens the dish. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to three days; reheat gently. For a lighter version, consider using half-and-half or coconut milk instead of heavy cream. If you can’t find lobster, shrimp makes a great substitute, or use mushrooms for a vegetarian option. Enjoy!
