Servings: 4 Lobster Rolls
Ingredients
- 1 pound picked lobster meat a mix of knuckles, claws and tails
- 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons minced chives
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice plus more to taste
- 1 tablespoon of butter unsalted or salted
- 4 top split brioche hot dog buns
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Dice the lobster meat into bite sized pieces
- Combine the lobster meat, mayonnaise, chives, and lemon juice in a bowl and mix until the lobster is lightly dressed.
- Give the salad a taste and add salt, pepper, or a squeeze of lemon if desired. Set the lobster mixture aside while you prepare the buns.
- Melt the butter in a 10” skillet over medium heat.
- Toast the buns in the melted butter for 2 minutes on the first side. Flip the buns and toast for 1-2 minutes on the other side. The sides of the hot dog buns should be golden brown.
- Fill the warm buns with the lobster salad and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
Notes
- You can use a combo of knuckles and claws and tails. Don't use all lobster tails, or the lobster rolls will be too tough.
- See the post for instructions on how to cook your own lobsters.
- Frozen lobster can be used, thaw and drain before using.
