Method
 

Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Stir in diced carrots and celery; cook for an additional 5 minutes until softened.
  4. Pour in heavy cream and chicken or seafood stock, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Gently fold in lobster meat and frozen peas; simmer for another 5 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat and season with fresh thyme, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.
  7. Fit one pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish. Pour the lobster mixture into the crust.
  8. Cover with the second crust, crimping the edges to seal. Cut slits into the top crust for steam release.
  9. Brush the top crust with the beaten egg before baking.
  10. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
  11. Allow to cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Choose quality lobster for the best flavor. Use heavy cream for richness, and consider pre-baking the crust for a crisp bottom. Let the pie rest before serving for better slices.
