Lobster Mac and Cheese

If you’re like many other home cooks this past year, maybe you’ve found yourself stretching your culinary limits with each new kitchen creation. Perhaps you’ve tried baking a soufflé or attempting a lookalike recipe of your favorite restaurant dish. (Or maybe you’ve even tried your hand at baking bread—gasp!)

One thing many cooking novices tend to shy away from is seafood recipes, whether for lack of experience or due to limited resources.

However, this beloved food group is not as tricky to get right as it may seem. So—if you’ve been holding off on your favorite lobster, crab, shrimp, or shellfish dish until you can resume indoor restaurant dining again, then these recipes are for you!

 

Lobster Mac and Cheese with Butter Bread Crumb Topping

Recreate this classic steakhouse menu item with quick-boiled lobster tails, al dente campanelle pasta, a three-cheese blend with simple béchamel sauce, and a topping of garlicky toasted Martin’s Butter Bread crumbs.
