    Yes, lobster scrambled eggs are comfort food on top of comfort food on top of comfort food. It is the ultimate cure for a bad day, or the ultimate reward for a good one.

    Because lobster doesn’t have to be for a special occasion – the special occasion can be taking care of you, or someone you love and adore.  And this easy recipe divides one lobster among two happy people, so it doesn’t break the bank either.

    Ready for the best comfort food ever?  Let’s make it!

    ingredients you need

    • Lobster
    • Butter
    • Eggs
    • Milk or Cream
    • Sea Salt and Pepper
    • Chopped Chives (optional)

    Here’s how you make this recipe

    STEP 1: I will admit right here and now that I am not capable of cooking a lobster myself, so if you are in my camp you can do what I do, which is to ask your friendly neighborhood seafood counter person at the supermarket to steam it for you.

    I go to the seafood counter first, ask for my steamed lobster and then go about the rest of my shopping, since the steaming usually takes about 10 minutes or so.

    STEP 2 Then when we get home, the Southern husband grabs the kitchen shears and gets to work.  If you need a quick overview on how to shell a lobster, here’s a handy video for you.

    STEP 3: Once your lobster meat is out of the shell, all that’s left to do is gently scramble some eggs, fold in the lobster, ladle it out into warm bowls and sprinkle on some salt and pepper and chopped chives.

    Recipe FAQ

    Can I use frozen lobster?

    You can! I like the Cozy Harbor brand, which you can sometimes find in the freezer section. And you can also swap in shrimp!

    What is the difference between using milk and cream?

    Your eggs will have a richer, more substantial texture if you use cream. I like the lighter texture of scrambled eggs made with milk, but you be you, scrambled egg-wise!

    Have a question that I didn’t cover?

    Drop it in the comments and I will answer pronto!

    Lobster scrambled eggs.  Because you’re worth it!
