Yields1 ServingPrep Time10 minsCook Time20 minsTotal Time30 mins

 2 western rock lobsters
 2 slices of white bread
 50 g iceberg lettuce
Sauce
 100 ml fish stock
 100 ml dry white wine
 150 g salted butter
 23 tsp fish sauce
 20 ml lemon juice
 lemon zest
 4 cups finger limes (optional)
1

Preheat barbecue or grill on high heat.

2

To prepare the lobster, place the live lobster into the freezer for an hour. This will put the lobster to sleep.

3

Once the lobster is completely chilled, remove from the freezer and stab the lobster through the head using a sharp knife. Cut in half lengthwise through the shell and place the lobster onto a tray, flesh side up.

4

To make the lemon butter sauce, place the fish stock and wine in a pan, on a medium heat and reduce to 50ml. Whisk in the butter gradually once warm to form the sauce.

5

Place the lobsters onto the preheated barbecue or grill flesh side up and close the lid to keep the heat in. Cook for 8-10 minutes or until the flesh is just translucent in the centre.

6

Slice finger limes in half and gently squeeze out the pearls into a reserved dish.

7

To finish, add the lemon juice, salt and pepper to the sauce and pour over the lobster.
Garnish with the reserved finger lime pearls.

8

Serve with two slices of white bread and iceberg lettuce.
