The combination of tender, succulent chunks of lobster with gooey, creamy, cheesy pasta is a match made in heaven. This dish is truly the ultimate comfort food, elevated to a whole new level.
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. Then, cook 8 ounces of elbow macaroni according to the package instructions. Drain the pasta and set it aside.
Next, melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add in 3 tablespoons of flour and stir until smooth. Gradually pour in 2 cups of whole milk, whisking constantly to ensure a smooth consistency. Continue to cook over medium heat until the sauce begins to thicken.
Once your sauce has thickened, add in 1 1/4 cups of grated cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese. Stir until the cheese has fully melted into the sauce. Add in 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Now it’s time to add in the star of the show – 8 ounces of cooked lobster meat, roughly chopped into bite-sized pieces. Stir the lobster into the cheese sauce until it is fully coated. Then, gently fold in the cooked macaroni until everything is evenly combined.
Transfer the mac and cheese to an oven-safe baking dish. Top with an additional 1/2 cup of grated cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup of panko breadcrumbs. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or chives for some extra color and flavor.
This Ruth’s Chris Lobster Mac and Cheese recipe is sure to impress your dinner guests and leave everyone feeling satisfied and happy. Serve it alongside a crisp green salad or roasted vegetables for a well-rounded and delicious meal. Enjoy!
