STEP TWO: The Lobster-- This can be done while vegetables are cooking. ReCut in a large dice. CHEF'S NOTE: Discard intestinal vein and stomach--a hard sac near the head--before dicing. STEP THREE: Add meat to sauce and simmer slowly for 10 minutes. Divide mixture evenly and spoon back into lobster shell. Dust with grated parmesan cheese and brown in a 375-degree oven for 15 minutes. Serve.
