Since we live in Maine were Lobster is King, try this one for dinner:
LOBSTER FRICASSEE
4 servings: ½ cup fricassee with ½ cup pasta or rice
2 cups shelled lobster meat
¼ cup low-fat margarine
¾ lb mushrooms, sliced
½ tsp onion powder
½ cup skim milk
¼ cup flour
¼ tsp paprika
Dash salt and pepper
2 cups cooked rice or pasta
Parsley springs
Cut the lobster meat into bite-sized pieces. Melt the margarine in a saucepan; add the mushrooms and onion powder. Sauté for 5 to 6 minutes. Whisk the milk and flour in a small bowl, whisking quickly to eliminate any lumps. Pour milk mixture into mushroom mixture; mix thoroughly, and continue cooking for 3 to 5 minutes. Add the lobster, paprika, salt, and pepper; continue cooking for 5 to 10 minutes until lobster is heated through. Spread rice or pasta onto a serving platter, spoon lobster and sauce over the top, and garnish with parsley to serve.
