Ingredients

  • 3 lobster tails
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • ¼ cup dry white wine
  • 5 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 lb fettuccine noodles
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 2 tbsp black truffle oil
  • ½ cup butter
  • 1 tbsp minced shallot
  • ¼ cup flour
  • 8 oz Brie cut into 1” pieces
  • ¼ cup whole milk
  • 3 tbsp chopped chives

Instructions

  • 1. Prepare the lobster tails. Set the instant pot to sauté. Pour 1 cup vegetable broth, wine, and ¼ cup butter into the instant pot. Add garlic and thyme. Place lobster tails into the instant pot and set to sauté. Cook for 4-6 minutes. ** The internal temp of the lobster should reach 140* . Check that the lobster shells are bright red, and the meat is opaque. **

  • 2. Remove lobsters from their shells by cutting down the middle with kitchen shears and gently tugging the meat. Roughly chop. Discard the shells and turn off the instant pot.

  • 3. Remove ¼ cup of broth from the instant pot and set aside to use in the cheese sauce. Keep remaining sauce in the instant pot.

  • 4. Add 1 cup vegetable broth, sea salt, and noodles to the instant pot. Seal and set to manual high pressure for 9 minutes. Allow 5 minutes of natural release then quick release remaining steam.

  • 5. Add noodles to a large bowl and toss with truffle oil.

  • 6. Add ¼ cup butter to the instant pot. Once melted, add flour and whisk to make a roux. Next, add Brie cubes, shallot, whole milk, and the broth stir until melted and smooth.

  • 7. Next, add the noodles, lobster, and chives to the instant pot and toss with the sauce.

  • 8. Enjoy!
