Ingredients

8 ounces fresh Maine lobster meat, large dice (appropriate size for crouton)

½ teaspoon fresh minced garlic

2-3 Tablespoons dry sherry

To taste salt and freshly ground pepper

3 Tablespoons whole butter

12 French bread croutons

½ cup red pepper mousseline - recipe follows

½ cup chiffonnade fresh basil

12 slices fresh mozzarella to fit croutons

As needed chives

1 Tablespoon lemon zest

As needed melted butter for croutons

Sauté lobster, garlic, sherry, salt and pepper in whole butter very briefly (just to warm and cook garlic). Set aside.

Grill croutons, cool to room temperature and brush with melted butter and lemon zest. Spread a little mousseline on each crouton and divide the basil up amongst the croutons. Equally divide the lobster meat over the croutons. Place a slice of fresh mozzarella over the lobster. Sprinkle with chopped chives. Place croutons on a sheet pan and bake briefly or until the mozzarella starts to melt.

Serve immediately, three to a portion arranged nicely on a plate with lemon wedge or appropriate garnish.

Red Pepper Mousseline:

1 ounce whole butter

2 ounces minced onion

1½ pounds diced red pepper

1 teaspoon minced garlic

4 ounces white wine
