Easy Lobster Scampi Recipe

A very simple lobster scampi recipe that can be made with fresh or canned lobster meat.

Ingredients:

• 8-10 oz cooked lobster meat
• 1/2 stick butter
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 8 tsp minced garlic (about 15 cloves)
• 1 tsp paprika
• 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 cup white wine
• Juice of 1/2 lemon
• If desired: a dash of hot pepper oil, crushed red pepper flakes, and/or 1 tbsp hot mustard

Melt butter and olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and brown slightly until fragrant. Whisk in the Worcestershire sauce, white wine, paprika, and mustard if desired. and simmer for 5 minutes.  Add lemon juice and the lobster, and cook just long enough for the meat to become hot, to avoid toughening the precooked lobster.
