Lobster Filling

Roll Assembly

Method

Prepare Lobster Filling

  1. 1

    Combine Ingredients

    In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cooked lobster meat, mayonnaise, finely chopped celery, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and chopped chives. Stir until all ingredients are well mixed.

  2. 2

    Chill the Mixture

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

Prepare Rolls

  1. 3

    Toast the Buns

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the New England-style hot dog buns, cut-side down, and toast until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Lobster Rolls

    If desired, place a lettuce leaf in each toasted bun. Then, generously fill each bun with the chilled lobster mixture.
