lobster salad

3 lobster tails
1 yellow or orange pepper, sliced in whole rings
cherry tomatoes
1 ripe mango, diced into small cubes
1 avocado, diced into small cube
a large handful of mixed greens
1/8 cup olive oil
1/4 tsp mustard
a dash of balsamic vinegar
1/2 of a fresh squeezed lemon
salt and pepper to taste
chives for garnish

Take one medium sized lobster tail and chop up into bite sized pieces. Add to a bowl with diced mango and avocado. Whisk together olive oil, mustard, vinegar, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Drizzle 3-4 tbs of the dressing over the salad and toss together.

Plating the dish

Place mixed greens on each plate and top with 1-2 slices of pepper--I used an orange pepper for color and taste.  Drizzle a little more dressing over the salad.

Top the pepper rings with the lobster salad. Add cherry tomatoes around the mound of salad over the mixed greens. Place 1 small lobster tail over the lobster salad and insert a few stalks of chives in the center of the lobster tail as seen in the photo. Serve with a chilled bottle of white wine.
