This creamy lobster seafood linguine recipe combines velvety sauce, tender lobster, and perfectly cooked linguine for a restaurant-quality meal that’s surprisingly easy to make.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lobster tail, cooked and chopped into bite-sized pieces
  • 8 ounces linguine, cooked al dente
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth (or seafood stock)
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the linguine according to package directions. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
  2. While the pasta cooks, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream. Stir well and bring to a gentle simmer. Let the sauce cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Add the grated Parmesan cheese and stir until it’s fully melted and the sauce is smooth. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
  5. Gently fold the lobster pieces into the sauce, cooking for 2-3 minutes until heated through. Add the lemon juice and stir to combine.
  6. Add the cooked linguine to the skillet, using tongs to toss the pasta with the sauce until evenly coated. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of reserved pasta water to loosen it.
  7. Remove from heat, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately.

Notes

Don’t overcook the lobster—it should remain tender and juicy. Reserve pasta water to adjust sauce consistency. Grate your own Parmesan for better texture.
