This homemade Lobster Alfredo is luscious, dreamy, and would make for a great dinner date night-in!

Even though I do like going out for the occasional date night, I actually prefer to stay in on Valentines Day! I love cooking up a special “made with even more love” meal for my hubby, enjoying the no-wait, and indulging in foods where I know exactly what ingredients were used. This Lobster Alfredo, in my humble opinion, just oozes love. Maybe it’s because lobster is only ever ordered on a special occasion, but it feels like one of the most special proteins available. THEN you add pasta and a creamy alfredo sauce? I am SO IN.




The lobster tail is steamed in a little butter, white wine, and the loveliest Amore Seasoning by Primal Palate. Be sure to use a white wine that you enjoy, so that you and your sweetheart can share a chilled glass while dinner comes together!
Cooking Lobster Fettuccine Alfredo
Once the tail is steamed, allow it to cool a bit while you start the pasta and the sauce. Note that this alfredo sauce is the REAL DEAL – packed with real cream, butter, and cheese. Feel free to experiment with dairy-free alternatives as you need!
Serving Lobster Fettuccine Alfredo
Using a good pair of kitchen scissors, cut the shell away from the lobster, remove the meat, and give it a rough chop. Once the pasta is finished, toss everything together in the luscious sauce, garnish with parsley, and serve with a fresh glug of that chilled white wine for a perfect pairing!
I hope you love this recipe as much as we do and that it helps walk you through how to easily prepare lobster from home.

Ingredients
For the Lobster:
- 1, 2 pound raw defrosted lobster tail
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup white wine
- 1 teaspoon Primal Palate Amore seasoning
For the Alfredo:
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves garlic cut into thin slivers
- 1 cup heavy cream may substitute coconut cream or milk
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt or to taste
- 1 package gluten free fettuccine
- Fresh cracked black pepper for topping
- Fresh chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- In a saute pan large enough to fit the lobster tail, melt 1 tablespoon butter with 1 cup white wine and 1 teaspoon Primal Palate Amore seasoning. Bring to a simmer then place the tail in the pan and cover with a lid, setting aside a bit so that it can vent. Steam about 8 minutes, until the tail is cooked and the shell turns red/pink. Turn off the heat and set aside.
- Bring a pot of water to boil and prepare the pasta according to the package instructions.
- In a medium saute pan, melt the butter over medium heat and add the garlic slivers. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until garlic is browned. Add the heavy cream, parmesan, and sea salt and continue stirring the sauce with a whisk or rubber spatula until the cheese is fully incorporated. Leave on low heat.
- Cut the shell of the cooled lobster tail, remove the meat, and chop into bite-sized pieces.
- Toss the cooked pasta and lobster in with the Alfredo sauce.
- Plate and garnish with black pepper and freshly chopped parsley. Serve!

This looks SO yummy! If we don’t have that Amore seasoning, what’s a good alternative in terms of seasonings? What’s the flavor that it provides?
Amber Link says
An Italian seasoning or Herbs de Provence along with some garlic and onion powder would be perfect! Here’s a link to the ingredients in the seasoning: http://www.primalpalate.com/paleo-ingredient/primal-palate-amore/

Where do you get the lobster tail from? Whole Foods? I’ve never worked with lobster before! Is it relatively easy?
Amber Goulden says
Yes, we got ours from Whole Foods and it is relatively easy to make!

I have cooked lobster meat do I skip step 1?
Brandi Schilhab says
Yes! Enjoy, Anita!
Peggy Kerbaugh says
What do you do with the 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt?
Brandi Schilhab says
Whoops! Add it in with the other alfredo ingredients. The correction is reflected in the recipe now!
Kat says
Do I use salted or non salted butter?
Melissa Guevara says
Either will work in this recipe! It really comes down to a personal preference on the seasoning of your food. Salted butter will add additional salt, so you could choose to omit the additional salt if you go that route (I personally use both). ~Melissa
Andrea says
Looks yummy! How much lobster tail do you need? It was a little unclear…is it 1 (2 pound lobster tail)? or 1-2 lbs of lobster tail?
Thanks!
Brandi Schilhab says
You need 1 2-pound lobster tail, Andrea. Enjoy!
Carrie says
Was looking for something other than chicken to make and thought this would be worth trying. Really good flavor. The sauce wasn’t quite enough for an entire package of pasta. Had to double the sauce, but otherwise was good!
Brandi Schilhab says
So glad you enjoyed this one, Carrie! Thanks so much for the feedback!
