Directions

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add scallops, cook and stir until opaque, about 6 minutes.

Bring 2 inches water to a boil in a large pot. Place lobsters in pot, steam until bright red, about 20 minutes.
Lay cooked lobsters on the their backs on a work surface. Wear gloves and make an incision between the legs down to the tail using a heavy knife. Pry open the chest cavity and rinse out innards with warm water. Fill the chest cavity and tail with the stuffing until overflowing.
Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Place stuffed lobsters on their back on a baking sheet.
Bake under the broiler until stuffing has browned, about 5 minutes.
