3 tbsp unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup white wine (optional)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
Salt and cracked pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Optional: a pinch of cayenne for heat
Instructions
1. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and sauté garlic until fragrant.
2. Add white wine, simmer for 1–2 minutes to reduce.
3. Stir in heavy cream and Parmesan; simmer until thickened.
4. Add lobster medallions and cook 2–3 minutes to absorb flavors.
5. Season with salt, pepper, cayenne; garnish with parsley and serve.
Notes
Do not overcook the lobster to maintain tenderness.
Use freshly grated Parmesan for a smooth melt.
Simmer the cream gently to avoid curdling.
Wine reduction adds depth—don’t skip it.
