Lobster Thermidor Atop Baby Spinach Leaves with Lemon Slices
The last two weeks have been rife with activity, good news, and celebrations. Among our festivities, Corey and I celebrated Valentine’s Day and our 2nd anniversary as a married couple. And it wouldn’t be a celebration in our house, if it didn’t include good food and this lobster thermidor fit the bill perfectly.
Lobster thermidor is an elegant meal for a truly special occasion. Cooked lobster meat is mixed with butter, melted cheese, and sherry, which is then placed into empty lobster tails. The mixture is topped with breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese and then broiled. The result is creamy, cheesy lobster meat that is absolutely sinful. The lobster is served atop a bed of mixed greens, alongside fresh lemon slices. The lemon adds a nice acidity to the dish.
