Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large pot over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter. Add 1 finely diced onion and 2 minced garlic cloves, cooking for about 5 minutes until soft and fragrant.
  2. Stir in 2 tablespoons of tomato paste, allowing it to cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  3. Gradually pour in 4 cups of seafood stock while stirring gently. Bring to a gentle simmer and let it bubble softly for about 10 minutes.
  4. Gently mix in 1 cup of lump crab meat, 1 cup of peeled and deveined large shrimp, and the meat from 1 lobster tail. Simmer for about 5 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and opaque.
