This is an incredibly easy dish to prepare and it makes for a very wonderful dinner for two. Use a dry champagne for best flavor. Serve with baked potatoes, string beans, and the rest of the champagne!

Oh my God, this 100% goes on my list of the best things I've ever eaten. We added 2 cloves of garlic. I have no words. You could put that sauce on a SHOE and it would taste delicious. Read More

I made this for the first time on Christmas Eve for something entirely different. I purchased a few pounds of lobster tails (7-8) 6-8 oz size which were about 5.99 a piece. I cooked with with an inexpensive brut champagne that I love. It was a big hit and extremely easy. The cook time for the tails was accurate as I left the meat in the shell as they cooked. I used half and half which makes a sauce which isn't as thick. I served them with crab cakes steamed broccoli and a salad. Read More

This was delicious!! I made it last week for my husband's birthday and he loved it! Paired it with two filet mignon steaks made a little more sauce to also top the steaks and it was perfect. The only thing is that I find there was not enough liquid originally with the lobsters...that could have been my fault using the wrong size pan. I added a little more to compensate. Read More

The champagne sauce brought the lobster to another level! I was nervous that we wouldn t like it so I had lemon and butter on the table just in case. The champagne sauce was gobbled up even being used to dip out steaks in!!! Definitely will be making this again! Read More
