Cooking Steps
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil and 1 tablespoon of salted butter over medium heat. Add chopped lobster tails and minced garlic. Sprinkle in smoked paprika, red pepper flakes, and a pinch of salt. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the lobster turns opaque.
- Remove the lobster and set it aside, leaving the mixture in the skillet. Add thinly sliced prosciutto and cook for another 3-4 minutes until crispy and golden.
- Pour in the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and add halved cherry tomatoes and fresh thyme. Sauté for about 4-5 minutes until the tomatoes start bursting.
- Add the cooked lobster back with the butter, lemon juice, and white wine. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
- In a large pot, boil salted water and cook the angel hair or linguine until al dente, about 2-4 minutes. Drain and reserve a cup of pasta water.
- In the skillet, toss in the drained pasta, adding reserved pasta water if needed. Stir in fresh basil, chives, and fontina cheese, mixing well. Serve hot, garnished with herbs and lemon.
