Lobster Filling

Method

Prepare Lobster Filling

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the fresh lobster meat, mayonnaise, finely chopped celery, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and chopped chives. Gently fold the ingredients together until well combined.

  2. 2

    Chill the Filling

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the lobster mixture for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Prepare the Rolls

  1. 3

    Toast the Buns

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, add the lobster rolls or hot dog buns to the skillet and toast them on each side until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Assemble the Lobster Rolls

  1. 4

    Fill the Rolls

    Remove the lobster filling from the refrigerator. Evenly distribute the lobster mixture into each toasted roll.

  2. 5

    Serve

    Serve the lobster rolls immediately, garnished with additional chives if desired.
