Definitely! Here's a recipe for the perfect lobster roll
Ingredients:
- 4 lobster tails (about 1 1/2 pounds total), cooked and meat removed
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 cup chopped celery
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 New England-style hot dog buns
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
- Lemon wedges for serving
Instructions:
1. Start by cooking the lobster tails. You can boil them in salted water for about 8-10 minutes until the shells turn bright red and the meat is opaque. Once cooked, remove the meat from the shells and chop it into bite-sized chunks.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, chopped celery, and chopped chives. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Add the chopped lobster meat to the mayonnaise mixture and gently fold until well combined. Be careful not to break up the lobster meat too much.
4. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Brush the melted butter onto the sides of the New England-style hot dog buns.
5. Place the buns onto the skillet or griddle, buttered side down, and toast until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes.
6. Once the buns are toasted, fill each one with the lobster salad mixture, dividing it evenly among the buns.
7. Garnish the lobster rolls with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
8. Enjoy your perfect lobster rolls!
