Lobster Salad

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Lobster Salad

    In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped lobster meat, mayonnaise, celery, red onion, lemon juice, and Sriracha sauce. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly coated. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Rolls

    While the lobster salad is chilling, prepare the New England rolls. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a tablespoon of butter. Split the rolls in half and place them cut side down in the skillet. Toast until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Lobster Rolls

    Remove the lobster salad from the refrigerator and give it a gentle stir. Spoon generous amounts of the lobster salad into each buttered roll. Serve immediately, garnished with additional Sriracha or lemon wedges if desired.
