Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Fill a large pot with salted water and bring it to a rolling boil. Carefully add the live lobsters and cook for 8-10 minutes until shells turn bright red. Remove and let cool slightly.
- Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add 1 cup of finely chopped shallots and sauté for 2 minutes until translucent. Add ½ cup of sliced mushrooms and cook for another 3-4 minutes until tender.
- Pour in 1 cup of white wine and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes to reduce by half. Stir in ½ cup of heavy cream, cooking for about 3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
- Chop the cooked lobster meat into bite-sized pieces and fold into the mixture. Add 1 teaspoon of paprika and half of the grated Parmesan cheese. Taste and adjust salt and pepper as necessary.
- Preheat broiler to high. Spoon the lobster mixture back into cleaned shells and top with remaining Parmesan cheese. Broil for 3-5 minutes until golden brown.
- Once bubbling and golden, remove from oven and serve immediately with a crisp salad or crusty bread.

Notes
Have all ingredients ready before starting. Don’t overcook the lobster; keep a close eye while broiling to avoid burning.
