  1. I really liked this recipe! It was nice and decadent (and easy)....even with the changes I made due to what I had on hand. I doubled the recipe in an 8x8 casserole and used garlic and chicken broth in place of the shallots and white wine and I used Panko crumbs on top. Doubling the recipe did not allow enough heating time for the lobster (and I think I more than doubled the lobster) so next time I will bake it for about 20-30 minutes on 350 before I put it under the broiler so it will be piping hot. This is really rich, but so good! Thanks for posting, my family really liked it!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

My husband and I have been married almost 32 years.? We spent 23 years in the Air Force, traveling all around the U.S. and Japan and Portugal.? At the moment we are living in Fairbanks, AK.? My husband is a Safety Officer with the pipeline and I work for the Army in the Army Substance Abuse Program.? I have learned to try and love many cuisines.? I do believe that traveling and sheer necessity has brought me to my love of cooking.? We've raised 3 boys and at the moment we have 2 of our sons and 3 grandchildren living with us.? They are so thankful that Grandma likes to cook.? I think baking is my most favorite thing to do, but trying new recipes out on my family at dinner is always fun.? We've had lots of great new recipes and a few not so great but it's always fun experimenting.? I love Recipezarr for this.? It's truly an experience.? I haven't put in too many recipes yet, I still work full time but will hopefully soon.
