For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of dry sherry or white wine to the stuffing mixture. Fresh tarragon can be used in place of dried tarragon for a more vibrant flavor. Use about 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh tarragon. To prevent the lobster from drying out during baking, you can add a small amount of water or white wine to the bottom of the baking dish. Serve with a side of lemon wedges and drawn butter for dipping.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
8 mins
Bring a large pot of water to a rapid boil. Add the lobster and cook for 8 minutes. Remove from the water and set aside to cool slightly. (8 minutes)
02
Step
15 mins
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (220 degrees C). When the lobster is cool enough to handle, split it in half lengthwise using a large chef's knife. Remove the dark intestinal vein if present. Scoop out the tomalley (the lobster's liver) and any roe (coral) if present into a bowl. Mix the tomalley and roe (if using) with the bread crumbs, softened butter, salt, pepper, and dried tarragon. (15 minutes)
03
Step
5 mins
Generously stuff this mixture on top of the lobster meat still nestled in its shell. Place the stuffed lobster halves in a baking dish. Drizzle vegetable oil evenly over the stuffing. (5 minutes)
04
Step
20 mins
Bake in the preheated oven until the stuffing is golden brown and slightly crisp, about 20 minutes. Serve immediately. (20 minutes)
