Level:: Easy

Ingredients

1 cup vodka
Salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons minced garlic
Freshly ground black pepper
2 (1 1/2-pound) lobsters, cooked, meat removed from the shell, and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces

Directions

Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add the olive oil. Add the onions and saute until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Season with freshly ground black pepper. Add the cooked lobster meat and saute quickly, just to heat up the meat.

Remove the pan from the heat and carefully add the vodka. Return the pan to the heat, ignite the alcohol, and cook until the alcohol burns off and the flames die out. Keep the pan moving throughout this process so nothing burns. Season with salt and serve.

Propane gas torches are highly flammable and should be kept away from heat, open flame and prolonged exposure to sunlight. They should be used only in well-ventilated areas. Follow torch manufacturer's instructions for use.
