I was lucky enough to inherit some extra lobster, so I made myself some lobster penne for dinner. While Hubster was working late, I made this for myself. The recipe below is for one serving.
Lobster Penne
Ingredients:
1 lobster tail (or lobster claws), button, minced shallots, 1 Tbsp. of chopped tarragon, 1/4 lb. dry penne pasta, 1/8 c. champagne, 9 asparagus tips, 1/8 c. sun-dried tomatoes, percorino-romano cheese
Directions:
Prepare lobster tail how you prefer; boiled, steamed or grilled are all great. Cut into large chunks and set aside. Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook penne according to package directions. In a small sauté pan, melt butter and brown shallots. Add lobster, tarragon and champagne and allow to simmer. Toss in sun-dried tomatoes and asparagus. Pour lobster and sauce over a bowl full of hot pasta. Sprinkle with freshly grated cheese.
Do you ever dine solo? What do you make?

Yes – I dine solo but not that often. I “lunch” solo a lot though. Also, that looks great and it would be great with shrimp or crawfish.
Shrimp I could do… not brave enough for the crawfish thing… although I don’t mind catching them in steams and river (and releasing them) with Pumpkin.
That looks divine! I immediately got hungry
Thanks, you’re too sweet!
Wow! What a solo dinner!!!
Haha, thanks!
Yeah I eat solo often these days since the boyfriend works half the week in another town. I kinda like cooking for just myself. I can experiment more with small portions. And take as long as I want trying to snap the perfect picture!
I’m really behind one posts! This looks amazing!
Thank you 🙂
