Decided to make up some lobster tacos last night. Fact of the matter, I'm really the only one that likes lobster and shell fish. But, we were doing it anyway. I thought they were really good, the wife liked them and I got the "they're OK" from the kids. However, they're weren't any leftovers.
So, I started with some fresh, raw corn tortillas and cooked them up. Next, I made the salsa. I couldn't find and yellow tomatoes so I used red.
Chipotle Salsa:
2 limes, zested and juiced
1 tablespoon chopped chipotle in adobo puree
2 teaspoons honey
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 yellow tomatoes, halved, seeded and diced
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves, plus more for garnish
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
This is very good on it's own.
Then, it was on to grilling the lobster tails.
Last thing is just putting it together with a little monterrey jack cheese.
All told, it was worth it for me anyway.
Thanks for looking.
