Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Chilled Lobster Avocado Salad.
Step 1
Start by filling a tall pot with about two inches of water and bring it to a rolling boil.
Step 2
Once the water is bubbling, carefully add the lobster, cover the pot, and let it steam for around 20 minutes, or until the lobster is tender and cooked through.
Step 3
When it’s done, give the lobster a quick rinse under cold water to cool it down.
Step 4
Next, it’s time to extract the delicious meat from the shell—just remove it and cut it into bite-sized chunks.
Step 5
For the best flavor, chill the lobster meat in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
Step 6
While the lobster is cooling, prepare a zesty dressing by whisking together white wine vinegar, canola oil, soy sauce, freshly grated ginger, a sprinkle of sugar, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl.
Step 7
Once the lobster is chilled, combine it with the dressing in a large mixing bowl, and gently fold in creamy avocado chunks until everything is well mixed.
Step 8
Finally, serve your delightful lobster salad chilled, and feel free to garnish it with your favorite herbs or a squeeze of lemon for an extra touch.
Step 9
Enjoy this refreshing dish that’s perfect for any occasion!.
