Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Toss in the lobster pieces and cook for 3-5 minutes until the meat is opaque and tender. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over lobster, mix well, and set aside.
- In a separate pot, heat warm seafood broth over low heat, keeping it just shy of a simmer.
- In a large skillet, melt another tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add 1 cup of Arborio rice, toasting it for about 2 minutes. Start incorporating warm seafood broth, adding ½ cup at a time, stirring continuously.
- Once the rice is creamy, pour in ½ cup of dry white wine. Stir gently and allow it to simmer for the flavors to deepen.
- Gently fold in the cooked lobster, freshly grated Parmesan cheese, and lemon zest. Stir until the cheese melts and the risotto is creamy.
- Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of butter. Let the risotto rest for about 2 minutes.
- Spoon the risotto into warm bowls, garnishing with additional lemon zest and Parmesan. Serve immediately.
