This is a great recipe! I had two leftover lobster tails with about 3/4 C. of meat. I made the broth with the tails but added some raw shrimp to the boiling broth for about 5 minutes. I chopped the shrimp and added it along with the lobster meat. Fantastic! My husband loved it too. Thanks for the recipe.
