Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. If using live lobsters, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Carefully add the lobsters and boil for 8-10 minutes until they turn bright red.
  2. In a heavy-bottomed skillet, melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat until bubbling. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent and aromatic.
  3. Pour in 1/4 cup of brandy and simmer for 2 minutes to concentrate the flavors.
  4. Stir in 1 cup of chicken or seafood stock and then pour in 1 cup of heavy cream. Bring to a gentle simmer, cooking for 10-15 minutes until thickened.
  5. Fold in the prepared lobster meat and 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 egg yolks. Gradually mix in a spoonful of the hot sauce to temper, then stir back into the skillet.
  7. Serve the Lobster Newburg over buttered toast or in puff pastry shells, garnishing with freshly chopped parsley.
