Lobster Salad with Watercress
Lobster Salad with Watercress There’s a reason why this seafood is always the most expensive item on the menu, it even tastes rich! In addition to offering a good, low-fat source of protein (key for healthy hair growth), shellfish contains high amounts of zinc, a mineral which helps prevent acne and boost your immune function. Shellfish also has pantothenic acid, a B-vitamin that makes hair look shinier. Also good, are oysters, clams and mussels. In this amazingly decadent salad, fennel, sun-dried tomatoes and fresh herbs, form the perfect complement to the sumptuous seafood. Ingredients: 1 lg. egg 1 lg. egg yolk 2 tsp. Dijon mustard Zest and juice of 1 lemon 1 3/4 c. vegetable oil
3 Tbs. chopped dill and/or chives Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper 1/2 red onion, very thinly sliced 1 tsp. red wine vinegar 4 cooked tails 1 large bunch of watercress, tough stalks removed 1/2 fennel bulb, very thinly sliced 8 sun-dried tomatoes in oil, drained and chopped chervil, dill, or chives, to garnish Preparation; # 1 To make the dressing, combine the egg, egg yolk, mustard, and lemon zest and juice in a food processor. Slowly add the oil. Add the dill and season. Transfer to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate. # 2 Combine the red onion and vinegar in a bowl. Let stand for 10 minutes. Drain well. Remove the seafood meat from the shell, and chop it into large chunks. Divide the watercress among 4 plates and add the fennel, onion, tomatoes and seafood; drizzle with the dressing. Serve with more dressing served on the side. Note: Use your imagination and you'll find this salad is equally great with other substitute super seafoods, such as crab, Pollock or even scallops. Wonderful!
