parmesan + garlic lobster pasta f.a.q
yes! of course you can. for this recipe I used spaghetti noodles, however, linguine, angel hair or even penne would compliment this.
well, if you don’t like lobster then I wouldn’t recommend this dish because the flavour is pretty prominent throughout. however, if you’re really set on this recipe you can sub in chicken! i just wouldn’t poach it, i would either grill or pan fry it.
yes! if you’re not a fan of peas you can use asparagus or just remove the veggies completely!
