Instructions
Creating these delicious lobster rolls is simple when you follow these steps:
1. Cook the Lobster (if necessary): If using live lobster, fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil. Add the lobsters and cook for about 8-10 minutes or until bright red. Remove and let cool.
2. Chop the Lobster: Once cooled, carefully remove the lobster meat from the shells. Chop it into bite-sized pieces and place it in a bowl.
3. Prepare the Dressing: In a separate bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper until well combined.
4. Combine Mixtures: Add the chopped lobster meat to the dressing and gently fold to coat.
5. Toast the Buns: Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Once melted, add the hot dog buns and toast until golden brown on both sides.
6. Assemble the Rolls: Carefully spoon a generous amount of the lobster mixture into each toasted bun.
7. Garnish: If desired, sprinkle freshly chopped chives or parsley on top for added flavor and presentation.
8. Serve Immediately: For the best taste and texture, enjoy the lobster rolls right after assembling.
These steps will guide you in creating a mouthwatering dish that celebrates the deliciousness of lobster in every bite.
