Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boiling point and cook the bucatini according to package instructions until al dente, about 8 to 10 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining it.
  2. In a skillet, melt butter and olive oil over medium heat for about 1 minute until combined.
  3. Add minced garlic and red pepper flakes, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the dry white wine, deglazing the pan and allowing it to reduce for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Gently add cooked lobster meat to the skillet, warming it through for about 2 minutes.
  6. Combine drained bucatini with the sauce and lobster, incorporating reserved pasta water gradually until creamy.
  7. Season with salt and pepper, stir in chopped parsley, and plate the pasta garnished with shaved Parmesan.
