Cloud-tender and buttery sweet, lobster is always a luxury treat. Cooking these pink seafood nubs with cream, seafood demi-glace and a splash of lemon juice only amplifies the delicate flavour. Meanwhile, sautéed morsels of shimeji mushrooms in garlic is a way to get playful with texture. Just toss in al dente bucatini for an Artisan hole in one! Balance each decadent plate with acidity and rusticity from a salad of gently massaged kale in a zesty fresh lemon vinaigrette.

Preparation
Boil the pasta
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Transfer 1 cup boiling water (double for 4 portions) to a medium heatproof bowl. Add the pasta to the pot of boiling water; stir gently to separate. Boil, 8 to 10 min., until al dente. Reserving ½ cup cooking water (double for 4 portions), drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, to the bowl of boiling water, add the dried mushrooms. Set aside for at least 10 min. to rehydrate. Remove the kale leaves from the stems; tear the leaves. Remove the bottom of the fresh mushrooms; separate the mushrooms. Zest and juice the lemon. Mince the garlic. Pat the lobster dry with paper towel; season with ½ the spices and S&P.
Sauté the mushrooms
In a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the fresh mushrooms, ⅔ of the garlic, the remaining spices and S&P. Sauté, 3 to 5 min., until softened.
Make the salad
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine ⅔ of the lemon juice, ½ the lemon zest, the remaining garlic, 3 tbsp olive oil (double for 4 portions) and S&P. Add the kale and massage, 1 to 2 min., until softened.
Make the sauce & cook the lobster
Drain the rehydrated mushrooms and roughly chop, reserving ½ the liquid. To the pan of mushrooms, add the lobster, cream, demi-glace, rehydrated mushrooms, reserved mushroom liquid, the remaining lemon juice and S&P. Cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 3 min., until the sauce has thickened and the lobster* is cooked through. If the sauce seems dry, gradually add the reserved cooking water until you achieve your desired consistency.
Combine the pasta & serve
To the pan of sauce and lobster, add the pasta, 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions) and S&P. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 min., until the pasta is coated. Divide the pasta between your bowls. Garnish with the remaining lemon zest. Serve the salad on the side. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking shellfish to a minimum internal temperature of 74°C.
