Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 oz fresh lobster meat
- 0.5 cup dairy-free mayonnaise
- 2 whole celery stalks
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp fresh chives
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 4 whole split-top hot dog rolls
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 whole butter lettuce leaves
Instructions
Begin by dicing the fresh lobster meat into bite-sized pieces. Place in a large mixing bowl.
Finely chop the celery stalks and add them to the bowl with the lobster.
Add dairy-free mayonnaise, lemon juice, fresh chopped chives, salt, and black pepper to the lobster and celery mixture. Stir gently until all ingredients are well combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend.
While the lobster mixture chills, prepare the rolls. Brush the outside of each split-top hot dog roll with olive oil.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the oiled rolls in the skillet, split side down, and toast until golden brown, approximately 2-3 minutes. Flip and toast the other side equally.
To assemble the lobster rolls, open each toasted roll and place a lettuce leaf inside.
Generously fill each roll with the chilled lobster mixture.
Serve immediately, garnished with extra chives if desired, for that unmistakable taste of a New England summer.
