INGREDIENTS:
(4 servings, prepare in 10 minutes, cook time 10 minutes, total meal in 20 minutes)
2 - 1 1/2 lbs live Maine lobsters
1 small onion, quartered
2 cloves garlic
1 tbs ground cumin
1 tbs ground coriander
1 tbs paprika
2 tbs lime juice
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1 tbs sugar
DIRECTIONS:
To prepare the marinade, place all ingredients in a blender and process until smooth.
For the Maine lobster, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Place live Maine lobsters into the boiling water and cover tightly. Cook 4 or 5 minutes, until the Maine lobster tails are curled and the shells have turned bright red. Remove Maine lobsters from water and place in an ice-water bath to halt the cooking process.
Break off the claws and separate the head from the tail. Remove the meat from the tail in one piece by cutting along the soft underside shell to expose the flesh. With the back of the knife, lightly crack the shells of the large claws and gently remove meat in one piece.
Place the Maine lobster tail and claw meat in the marinade, cover, and refrigerate for 4 hours.
To serve: preheat oven to 500 degrees F. Place the marinated Maine lobster meat on a baking sheet and cook for about 4 minutes, until the meat is slightly opaque white and the marinade is slightly browned.
