Chocolate Lobster Taco Signature Taco Recipes

LOBSTER, BACON AND CHORIZO TACO

Steps:

• In a large nonstick pan over medium-low heat, saute the bacon and chorizo until the fat is rendered, about 10 minutes. Add the onions and saute until soft, about1 minute. Bring the heat up to medium and add the lobster meat. Cook until the lobster is cooked all the way through , an additional 3 to 5 minutes. Add the cheese, salsa and cilantro. Toss to form a gooey mess. Season with the salt and pepper. Serve inside tortillas and garnish with anything your heart desires.

CHOCOLATE TACOS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the egg whites and sugar and beat with a whisk until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the flour, salt, melted butter, heavy cream and vanilla with a rubber spatula until combined.
• Prop up each end of a long wooden spoon on a can or bowl (you'll use this to shape the taco shells). Heat a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat; coat with cooking spray. Spoon 2 tablespoons of batter into the pan; use a small offset spatula to spread the batter into an even 4- to 5-inch pancake. Cook on the first side until golden brown at the edges, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown on the reverse side, about 1 more minute. Remove from the pan and immediately drape the pancake over the wooden spoon. Set aside to set, about 5 minutes. Repeat to make 8 to 10 tacos, wiping out the skillet and adding more cooking spray as needed.
• Put the chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water; stir until melted. Dip the edges of the taco shells in the melted chocolate and return to the wooden spoon; let set, about 5 minutes. (If making in advance, refrigerate until ready to serve.) Fill the taco shells with ice cream and garnish with some chopped pecans.

Cook on the first side until golden brown at the edges, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown on the reverse side, about 1 minute more. Remove from the pan and immediately hang the pancake over the handle of a wooden spoon to form the taco. Set aside to set, about 5 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• Dip the tacos in the melted chocolate and return to the wooden spoon. If making ahead of time, refrigerate until needed.

BEER-BATTERED LOBSTER TACOS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the lobster: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. While whisking constantly, add the egg, beer, and Cholula® Hot Sauce and continue whisking until smooth.
• Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C). Set a wire rack over a baking sheet.
• Working in batches of a few pieces at a time, dip the lobster in the batter until thoroughly coated, then add to the hot oil. Fry, turning occasionally, for 4 minutes, or until the batter is deep golden brown and the lobster is cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the lobster to the wire rack to drain.
• Make the slaw: In a medium bowl, toss together the green and red cabbage, radishes, red onion, mayonnaise, lime juice, and salt until well combined. Season with more salt to taste.
• Assemble the tacos: Place a few slices of avocado on a warm tortilla, then top with 3-4 pieces of fried lobster and about ¼ cup of slaw. Drizzle with Cholula® Hot Sauce and garnish with cilantro.
• Enjoy!

LOBSTER TACOS

Steps:

• Preheat a lightly oiled grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Cut lobster tails in half lengthwise along the spine. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Grill until slightly charred and shells are bright in color, about 5 minutes. Remove lobster meat from the shells and chop coarsely.
• Combine chile sauce, 1/2 the tomato, and green onions in a large bowl. Mix in chopped lobster meat.
• Divide Colby-Monterey Jack cheese evenly among tortillas. Top each tortilla with some of the lobster mixture. Fold tacos over and grill until cheese melts and tortillas are lightly charred, about 1 minute per side. Garnish with remaining tomato, avocado, and shredded lettuce.

CHOCOLATE TACOS

Steps:

• For the shells: Set a large wooden spoon on the counter so that the handle hangs over the edge. Weight the other end of the spoon down with a heavy book or heavy pan; you'll drape the warm shells over the handle to form your tacos.
• Place the egg whites, sugar, milk, vanilla and salt in a medium bowl and whisk together. Stir in the flour and butter until fully incorporated and the batter is smooth.
• Place a medium nonstick skillet or cast-iron pan over low heat. Scoop 1 generous tablespoon of batter into the skillet and spread into a thin even layer with a small offset spatula. Spread the batter quickly to form a nice round that's roughly 5 inches in diameter. Cook until the underside of the disc is browned and set, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and continue to cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
• Lift the disc off the griddle and quickly and carefully lay it over the handle of the wooden spoon. Guide the shell with your hands to make sure the sides are even. This must be done quickly as the shell will begin to harden almost immediately after leaving the skillet. Hold the taco for a few seconds until it hardens and then leave it there to cool. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• These taco shells are best eaten the day they are made, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
• For the tacos: Bring a medium saucepan filled with a few inches water to a bare simmer. Place the chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over (not in) the simmering water. Cook until the chocolate is melted and smooth, stirring occasionally. (Alternately, place the chocolate in a medium microwave-safe bowl and microwave at 30-second intervals until smooth, stirring between intervals.)
• Dip the edges of a shell in the melted chocolate and sprinkle the chocolate with peanuts. Repeat with the remaining shells and allow to cool.
• Scoop some ice cream into the shells. Drizzle fudge sauce over the ice cream and sprinkle with some more chopped peanuts. Eat straight away, or place filled tacos in the freezer to enjoy later.
