  18. ## **Step-by-Step Instructions**
  19. ### **1. Prepare the Lobster**
  20. - Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  21. - Carefully place the live lobsters into the boiling water and cook for 8-10 minutes until bright red.
  22. - Remove the lobsters and let them cool. Once cooled, crack the shells and extract the meat from the claws, tail, and knuckles. Chop the lobster meat into bite-sized pieces.
  23. ### **2. Make the Creamy Sauce**
  24. - In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the olive oil, garlic, and shallot, sautéing until fragrant (about 2 minutes).
  25. - Deglaze the pan with white wine, scraping up any browned bits. Let the wine reduce by half.
  26. - Stir in the heavy cream, Dijon mustard, paprika, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
  27. - Add the Parmesan cheese and stir until melted and smooth.
  28. ### **3. Combine Lobster and Sauce**
  29. - Gently fold the lobster meat into the creamy sauce, ensuring it’s well-coated. Cook for 2-3 minutes to heat the lobster through.
  30. ### **4. Broil for a Golden Finish**
  31. - Preheat your broiler to high.
  32. - Transfer the lobster mixture into an oven-safe baking dish or individual ramekins.
  33. - Sprinkle additional Parmesan cheese on top for a crispy, golden crust.
  34. - Broil for 3-5 minutes until the top is bubbly and lightly browned.
  35. ### **5. Garnish and Serve**
  36. - Remove from the oven and let it cool for a minute.
  37. - Garnish with freshly chopped parsley or chives for a pop of color and freshness.
  38. - Serve with crusty bread, roasted asparagus, or a side salad for a complete Mother’s Day feast.
