    To make the sauce, add oil to a pan. Add the shallots and garlic and saute until the shallots are translucent. Add the vermouth and reduce by half. Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste and Italian seasoning. Bring to a boil and reduce to low and simmer 10 minutes. Taste and adjust for salt and pepper.
  • Step 2
    Meanwhile, start the lobster manicotti. Bring a pot of water to a boil and add salt. Cook the shells for only 10 minutes. Drain. Set aside.
  • Step 3
    Add butter to a pan and add the onions; cook until translucent. Add the lobster meat and cook 3 to 4 minutes. Remove and let cool a bit. Add in the ricotta, breadcrumbs, asiago, Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses. Add the Italian seasoning and the eggs. Mix well. Fill the shells from each side and place in baking dish.
  • Step 4
    Preheat oven 350 degrees F. Pour the sauce over the manicotti in the pan and bake for about 30 minutes. Top with cheese and place back in oven for 5 more minutes.
