Ingredients

  • cups arugula dry washed and spun
  • bunch marjoram fresh with a piece of string
  •  juice of lemon 
  • tablespoons limoncello 
  • pound live lobsters 
  • cup olive oil extra-virgin

Equipment

  • bowl
  • sauce pan
  • grill
  • broiler

Directions

  1. Preheat barbecue or broiler.
  2. Place olive oil and juice and zest of 3 lemons into a small saucepan and place over medium heat. Bring to a near boil, remove from heat and pour into a bowl. Immediately add the marjoram "brush" and limoncello and allow to steep, like tea, for 1 hour, covered. This mixture can be stored in a lidded jar, away from light, for up to a week.
  3. Kill lobsters by piercing their shells with a sharp point at the center of the back end of the eyes.
  4. Place the whole lobster on the hottest part of the grill for 3 minutes per side and remove from the heat.
  5. Cut the lobsters in half lengthwise and, careful not to lose a drop of the tomalley or roe, gently anoint them with the scented oil, using the marjoram brush. Gently place them, shell-side down, on the grill and cook until nearly done, about 6 to 7 minutes. Turn the flesh side down, cook for 1 minute, and remove to a platter. Dress the arugula with 4 tablespoons of the scented oil and some coarse salt and pile in center of platter.
  6. Serve warm or room temperature, with the remaining oil and lemon wedges on side.
