Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a large skillet over medium-low heat, melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) of butter. (2 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

Add the chopped lobster meat to the melted butter and gently cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Be careful not to overcook the lobster, as it can become rubbery. Season with salt and pepper. (5 minutes)

03

Step
1 mins

In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and about 1 tablespoon of the light cream until completely smooth, ensuring no lumps remain. (1 minute)

04

Step
1 mins

Pour the remaining light cream into the skillet with the lobster, then stir in the cornstarch mixture. (1 minute)

05

Step
5 mins

Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the cream sauce comes to a gentle simmer and thickens slightly. The sauce should coat the back of a spoon. (5 minutes)

06

Step
5 mins

While the lobster mixture is simmering, toast the bread slices to your desired level of doneness. Spread each slice generously with butter. (5 minutes)

07

Step
2 mins

To assemble the Creamed Hot Lobster Sandwich: For each serving, place one buttered toast slice on a plate, spoon a generous amount of creamed lobster over the toast, top with another piece of buttered toast, and then spoon more creamed lobster over the top. Serve immediately. (2 minutes)

For a richer flavor, consider adding a splash of dry sherry or brandy to the cream sauce during the final minutes of cooking.
Fresh tarragon or chives, finely chopped, make a lovely garnish and add a touch of herbal freshness.
To make Lobster Poutine: Prepare French fries according to your preferred method. Top with cheese curds or shredded mozzarella, then smother with the creamed lobster. Broil briefly until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
If you don't have light cream, you can substitute with whole milk, but the sauce will be slightly less rich.
