Dublin Lawyer

Dublin lawyer is a traditional dish that's named after the city's wealthy lawyers and their love for whiskey. Although there are variations made with shrimp or crab, the dish is usually made with a combination of lobster and a sauce consisting of butter, whiskey, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper.


The lobster meat is cooked in the sauce until it becomes reduced and thick in consistency. The dish is served with pasta, rice, or toasted slices of bread for mopping up the sauce.
