Prep and season seafood by scrubbing shells and cutting lobster tails in half, washing with lemon juice, and adding Old Bay seasoning and black pepper; marinate for 20-30 minutes.

In a large pot, add 2 tablespoons of oil, then add onions, garlic, and scallions; sauté for about 3 minutes.

Add ground provisions (carrots and corn), black pepper, and complete seasoning; add pumpkin soup mix (removing noodles with a strainer) and cook for about 5 minutes to absorb seasoning.

Add hot water and coconut milk; taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

Add Habanero peppers and thyme; cover and cook until provisions are tender.

Once provisions are tender and soup thickens, add seafood and dumplings; cook for 5-8 minutes on medium-low heat.

Finish by adding butter for richness and creaminess, along with fresh green onions before serving.
