Surf and Turf Skewers with Spicy Sesame Lime Butter

Serves 4

Ingredients:

For the Skewers:

2 lobsters (1 ½ - 2 lbs.)
6 cloves garlic
2 inch piece of ginger, grated
Juice of 2 lime
¼ c soy sauce
¼ c tbsp sesame oil
Salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
2 lbs top sirloin or filet, cut into ¾ -1 inch cubes

For the Butter:

2 sticks of butter, cubed
2 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp Asian hot sauce, such as Sriracha
Zest of 1 lime
Salt, to taste
1 tbsp black sesame seeds

½ bunch cilantro, chopped for garnish

Directions:

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and par-cook the lobster for 4 minutes. Plunge it into an ice bath to cool and prevent from further cooking.

In a bowl, whisk together the garlic, ginger, lime, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt and pepper and set aside.

By now the lobster is cool and you can remove the meat from the shell. Crack the claws with the back of a knife and twist from the body. Carefully remove the meat and put it in a bowl. Cut the underside of the tail using either a knife or kitchen shears and remove the tail meat. The small tentacles are of no use for the skewers, but are certainly tasty to snack on while you're cooking. Discard the shells and chop the lobster meat into 1-inch pieces.

Either using bamboo skewers that have been soaked in water or metal skewers, begin to assemble the surf and turf, alternating between the steak and the lobster. Place the skewers in a baking dish, cover with the marinade chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Preheat the grill to high heat.

To make the compound butter, in the bowl of a food processor add the butter, sesame oil, hot sauce, lime zest and salt. Process until it is smooth. Scrape the butter into a bowl and stir in the sesame seeds. At this point, you can also roll the butter into a tube using plastic wrap and then it is very easy to cut a piece off whenever you want to use it.

Grill the skewers over high heat for 2 minutes per side for medium rare. To serve the surf and turf skewers, serve them on a bed of butter lettuce and top with the spicy sesame lime butter.

I like the look of all that butter! Glad you showed how easy it is to make lobster. I'm putting my Weber grill together today and look forward to making this!

I'm delighted that you guys are really responding to your viewers' requests! I was wondering if you guys could teach how to make chocolate mint ice cream--but without an ice cream machine?

Hi! Ok, so I'm a busy college student and I'm tired of eating fast food and ramen noodles because I KNOW it's not healthy. I was wondering what dishes you'd recommend throughout the day? Some that are quick and easy to do, like what another person mentioned about beginner cooks?

[JESSPENC]

Looks delicious. what's the song?! Absolutely love it

@ Kincommunity Thanks so much! :) Can I make the butter by hand in a bowl? I dont have a food processor? And is there a way to bake the skewers? I do have a grill but I haven't tried my hand at grilling my mom's the grill expert in the house.

Quick question: Isn't the lobster going to get over cooked since it was cooked before hand?

[annajames]

This looks SOO good! I don't like lobster by itself so when I see people at the grocery store walking out with lobsters I think yuck! BUT I will definately have to try this because my boyfriend is a seafood person!

ONE THING - In the video it said to put the lobster body aside of the stock... What do you do with that? Nothing in this video, right? Thanks!

You should be making the Kool-Aid, or making sure there's enough napkins. You definitely shouldn't be allowed in the knife kit. And, who let you on the hot side of the kitchen anyway?
