Instructions:

Prepare Beer Batter:
- “The longer it sits, the better it gits!”
- Mix dry ingredients in a bowl and set aside.
-
-
Mix Wet Ingredients:
- In another bowl, mix liquids (including egg).
- Add wet mixture to dry ingredients and mix until no longer lumpy.
-
Prepare Lobster Tails:
- While the batter rests on the kitchen counter (no need for refrigeration), shell the lobster tails.
- This is easiest when the tails are partially frozen.
- Use heavy-duty kitchen scissors to cut from the thick end over the top hump of the shell.
-
Slice into Medallions:
- Slice the tails into 1/2 inch thick medallions.
- Drain them on paper towels.
-
Heat Oil for Frying:
- Heat 2 inches of frying oil in a deep fryer.
- When the oil is hot, drop the battered medallions into the oil in a single layer.
- Cook in batches to prevent sticking together.
-
Drain and Keep Warm:
- Once cooked, drain the medallions on a paper grocery bag lined with paper towels.
- Keep batches warm in a medium-high oven while cooking the remaining medallions.
-
Serve Hot:
- Serve the Beer Battered Lobster Medallions hot with drawn butter.
- Pair with a rice or potato dish and a refreshing herb salad.
-
Wine Pairing:
- A semi-sweet white wine complements this dish beautifully.
-
Extra Tip for Leftover Batter:
- Any leftover batter can be used to fry up some delicious veggies!
- Try cauliflower, okra, onions, mushrooms, or dill pickle slices.
- Coat the veggies in a little flour or cornstarch to help the batter stick.
- Ensure to use immediately or discard if not using right away.
