Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound cooked lobster meat
- 4 pieces gluten-free hot dog buns
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 1 medium celery stalk
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons chives
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- to taste salt
- to taste black pepper
- 4 sheets lettuce leaves
Instructions
Begin by preparing the lobster meat if not already done. Cut or tear the lobster meat into bite-sized chunks and place in a mixing bowl.
Finely chop the celery stalk and chives. Add them to the bowl with the lobster meat.
In the same bowl, add the mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything together gently, ensuring that the lobster is coated evenly but not mashed.
Set the lobster mixture aside in the fridge while preparing the buns.
In a small pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Carefully brush the inside of each gluten-free hot dog bun with the melted butter.
Place the buns on a hot skillet or grill pan and toast them until they’re golden on the inside, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Remove the buns from the heat and let them cool slightly.
Place a lettuce leaf inside each toasted bun.
Spoon the chilled lobster mixture generously into each bun on top of the lettuce leaf.
Garnish the lobster rolls with extra chives if desired and serve immediately.
