Langosta Puerto Nuevo (Lobster)

Ingredients

• 2 pounds lobster
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 cup brown rice
• 1 cup black beans
• 4 pieces wheat flour tortillas
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 medium onion
• 2 pieces bell pepper
• 2 medium tomatoes
• 1 bunch cilantro
• 2 pieces lime
• 1 teaspoon each spices
• 1 to taste sea salt
• 1 to taste black pepper

Instructions

1. 1Prepare the lobster by splitting it down the middle. Remove the vein and rinse under cold water. Pat dry with paper towels.
2. 2Preheat a large pan over medium heat and add the extra virgin olive oil. Once hot, add the lobster, shell side down, and cook for 8-10 minutes until the shell is red and the meat is opaque.
3. 3In a separate pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the brown rice, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes, or until the rice is tender.
4. 4While the rice cooks, prepare the beans. Rinse and drain the black beans. In a pan, sauté chopped onion and minced garlic in a tablespoon of olive oil until translucent. Add the beans, season with salt and pepper, and cook on low heat for 10 minutes.
5. 5For the tortillas, combine whole wheat flour, warm water, and a pinch of salt in a large bowl. Knead until the dough is smooth. Divide into balls and roll each into a thin circle. Cook each tortilla in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 1 minute per side.
6. 6Chop the bell peppers and tomatoes. Sauté in a pan with a bit of olive oil, adding a pinch of salt, until soft. Mix the cooked vegetables into the rice once it's done.
7. 7Assemble the dish by placing a portion of the rice and bean mixture on each plate. Top with a piece of cooked lobster.
8. 8Garnish with fresh cilantro, lime wedges, and a sprinkle of your favorite spices.
9. 9Serve immediately with the warm whole wheat flour tortillas on the side.
