Replace lobster with 1 lb of cooked shrimp, scallops, or lump crab meat for a different but equally delicious seafood Newburg.
For an alcohol-free version, substitute the sherry with an equal amount of seafood or chicken stock mixed with 1 teaspoon of white wine vinegar.
Use half-and-half instead of heavy cream for a lighter sauce. Note that the final dish will be less rich and the sauce will be thinner.
Lobster is packed with high-quality lean protein, which is essential for building and repairing tissues, supporting muscle mass, and maintaining overall body function.
This dish provides important minerals from the lobster, including zinc for immune support, copper for forming red blood cells, and selenium, a powerful antioxidant that helps protect cells from damage.
A typical serving of this Lobster Newburg contains approximately 550-600 calories. This is an estimate and can vary based on the exact ingredients used, particularly the fat content of the cream.
Lobster Newburg is a very rich and decadent dish, high in fat and calories from the butter, cream, and egg yolks. While lobster itself is a good source of lean protein and minerals, this dish is best enjoyed as a special occasion treat rather than a regular part of a health-conscious diet.
It is strongly recommended to serve Lobster Newburg immediately after cooking. The egg-thickened sauce is delicate and can easily separate or curdle when cooled and reheated.
If you see signs of curdling, immediately remove the pan from the heat. You can try to save it by whisking vigorously, or by transferring the sauce to a blender and blending for 10-15 seconds. Another trick is to whisk in an ice cube off the heat to rapidly cool it down.
Classic pairings include toast points, puff pastry shells, fluffy white rice, or egg noodles. A simple side of steamed asparagus or a light green salad with a vinaigrette can help cut through the richness of the sauce.
Lobster Newburg features a delicate sauce made with cream, egg yolks, and sherry. Lobster Thermidor is more complex, typically involving a mustard-spiked béchamel sauce, with the lobster meat returned to the shell, topped with cheese, and browned under a broiler.
