Poor Man’s Lobster
Y’all know I love me some fish of every variety, but when it comes to fancy eating, I love lobster! Of course, this is quite expensive and not always easy to find. Today we’re making Poor Man’s Lobster that is so easy and affordable. Lots of people like to use halibut for this dish, but cod works just as well, and that’s what we’ll be cooking up today. You can use any white fish that has enough texture and size that you can easily cut it into 1″ x 1″ chunks.
