4 tablespoons butter
1 cup chopped yellow onion
1 teaspoon finely minced garlic
1/4 cup chopped carrot
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper

Add in the onion, garlic, and carrots; saute and stir frequently for 3 minutes or until onions are soft.

Add in the bell peppers and saute another 2 minutes.
4
Add in the lobster meat and cook 1 minute or until heated through; Set aside to cool for 10-15 minutes.
5
Transfer lobster mixture to a large mixing bowl.
6
Add in eggs, mayonnaise, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste; stir to mix well.
7
Add 1 cup of bread crumbs to lobster mixture; toss to mix.

Add more breadcrumbs if needed so that mixture barely holds it shape.

Pour oil into a large nonstick skillet to 1/4 inch depth; heat over medium heat.
11
When very hot, add lobster cakes.

Cook for about 3 minutes per side (for a 1-inch thick cake) or until golden brown on both sides.
13
Remove from skillet and drain on paper-towel lined plate.
14
Serve warm with your favorite sauce--we like honey mustard sauce.
