📝 Preparation Steps
1
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Once boiling drop in your lobster tails. Boil for ⏱️ 5-10 minutes or until your tails turn bright red (it only took mine about ⏱️ 6 minutes). Drain the water and allow the tails to cool.
2
Heat a medium-sized pot over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until crispy. Remove bacon from the pan and set aside on a paper towel to drain.
3
To the pot add the butter, onions, thyme and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until the onions begin to soften, about ⏱️ 5 minutes.

4
Continue cooking and scraping the browned bits off the bottom of the pan frequently, until the onions are golden brown, about ⏱️ 20 minutes. Once the onions are caramelized, add the flour and garlic. Stir the flour with the onions to make a roux, cook about ⏱️ 1 minute. Slowly pour in the wine and chicken broth. Add the corn.

Meanwhile cut down the back and front of the lobster and pull the meat away from the shell. Dice or shred the lobster meat.
