Cheat’s Lobster Thermidor

Make the butter by combining the shallot and wine in a pan, bringing to a simmer, and leaving until mostly evaporated. Tip into a bowl to cool. Mix all of the remaining ingredients together with the shallot, roll into a log with film, and chill to firm up.
Prep the lobster by snapping away the claws. With a very sharp knife, carefully cut the lobster in half, and clean the head cavity until a cold tap, and pat dry. Lay the lobsters cut-side up on a tray, crack the claws and pick out the claw meat. Divide the claw meat between the head cavities, then heat the grill to high.
Slice your butter log into thin rounds, and generously line them along the lobsters so all the meat is covered. Grill for 8 mins, then serve drizzling with any extra butter that leaked into the tray. Enjoy with salad leaves.
