Ingredients

2 (1 1/2-pound) lobsters, par-boiled and halved lengthwise
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
2 teaspoons honey
2 tablespoons prepared horseradish, drained
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon hot sauce (recommended: Tabasco)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon leaves
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 ripe avocado, peeled, pitted, and chopped
1/4 cup chopped watercress
4 lime wedges, for garnish

Directions

Heat grill to medium. Place lobsters on the grill, cut side down, and cook until slightly charred and just cooked through. Remove meat and coarsely chop.

Whisk together lime juice, honey, horseradish, Worcestershire, hot sauce, tarragon, and olive oil in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add the grilled lobster meat, avocado, and watercress. Serve in martini glasses and garnish with a lime wedge.

Too much Horseradish and Worcestershire
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

Made this and even cut the HR in half, but still overpowering. Avocado and lime complimented, but other flavors were too... strong. Was impressed w/ Flay on Iron Chef this weekend, but didn't understand this one.Read more

So tasty!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I would definitely recommend trying this one. It was absolutely delicious. My husband found this recipe and made it for me.... We've made it many times since. I'm not a big lobster fan and loved it. We've also made it with shrimp if we didn't have lobster on hand. Also great!Read more

EXCELLENT WITH SHRIMP
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I took the suggestion of another reviewer and used shrimp. I could not find watercress so used mixed greens. I also used 3... tbsp. of olive oil because it was just too tart for me. It was really simple and great. My husband loved it. I want to try it with lobster soon.Read more
