Lobster Filling

Method

Prepare Lobster Filling

  1. 1

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the lobster meat, mayonnaise, lemon juice, finely chopped celery, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and chopped chives.

  2. 2

    Mix Well

    Gently fold all the ingredients together until well combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the lobster chunks intact.

  3. 3

    Chill

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

Prepare Buns

  1. 4

    Butter Buns

    Spread butter evenly on the outside of each New England-style hot dog bun.

  2. 5

    Toast Buns

    In a skillet over medium heat, toast the buttered buns until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes on each side.

Assemble Lobster Rolls

  1. 6

    Fill Buns

    Remove the lobster filling from the refrigerator and spoon a generous portion into each toasted bun.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Garnish with additional chives if desired, and serve immediately while the buns are warm.
