Combine sesame oil with hot pepper oil (approximately 1 oz. total per portion based on the desired hotness). Stir-fry lobsters in oils after coming up to smoke stage. Add scallions, peppers and mushrooms. Cook until al dente.

Add angel hair pasta and soy butter to mixture; toss everything together. Place on center of each plate. Arrange hot lobster shells on plates to appear as a whole lobster presentation.
