Lobster Filling

Garnish

Method

Prepare Lobster Filling

  1. 1

    Combine Ingredients

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

  2. 2

    Chill

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

Prepare Rolls

  1. 3

    Butter the Rolls

    While the lobster filling is chilling, preheat a skillet over medium heat. Brush the outside of each New England style hot dog bun with melted butter.

  2. 4

    Toast the Rolls

    Place the buttered buns in the preheated skillet and toast them for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove from heat.

Assemble Lobster Rolls

  1. 5

    Fill the Rolls

    Take the chilled lobster filling out of the refrigerator. Place a lettuce leaf inside each toasted bun and generously fill with the lobster mixture.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Serve the lobster rolls immediately with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
