Grandmother's Lobster Pie
- 5 (1-pound) lobsters
- 1/2 pound butter
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 cups crushed snack crackers
- 4 sprigs parsley
- Lemon wedges
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat.
- Salt the water and add the lobsters.
- When the water comes to a second boil, cook the lobsters for 12 to 15 minutes.
- Remove the lobsters from the water and let cool.
- Crack the tails, knuckles and claws.
- Pick out the meat from the shells over a bowl to hold the juices.
- Reserve the tomalley.
- Set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Melt the butter in a frying pan over medium heat and add the tomalley and lemon juice.
- Remove from heat and stir in the crushed snack crackers.
- Add enough reserved lobster juice so the mixture is thick like turkey stuffing.
- Divide lobster meat among 4 individual casserole dishes.
- Cover each dish with the cracker mixture, patting it on evenly.
- Bake until the top begins to brown, about 10 minutes.
- Remove the dishes from the oven and garnish each with a parsley sprig and a lemon wedge.
