Description

Disappointed by restaurant lobster tacos, I created this recipe for great at-home lobster tacos my family enjoys. I used my grill pan for cooking inside.

Ingredients

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup red guajillo chile sauce (such as Herdez®)
  • 1 tomato, diced, divided
  • 3 green onions, chopped
  • ¼ cup shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese
  • 8 (6 inch) flour tortillas
  • 1 small avocado, sliced
  • ½ cup shredded lettuce

Instructions

  1. Preheat a lightly oiled grill pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Cut lobster tails in half lengthwise along the spine. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Grill until slightly charred and shells are bright in color
  3. about 5 minutes. Remove lobster meat from the shells and chop coarsely.
  4. Combine chile sauce
  5. 1/2 the tomato
  6. and green onions in a large bowl. Mix in chopped lobster meat.
  7. Divide Colby-Monterey Jack cheese evenly among tortillas. Top each tortilla with some of the lobster mixture. Fold tacos over and grill until cheese melts and tortillas are lightly charred
