Gently fold the ingredients together until the lobster is well coated and all ingredients are evenly distributed. Be careful not to overmix, as you want the lobster pieces to remain intact.
Rinse and pat dry the butter lettuce leaves to ensure they are clean and ready for filling.
In a small skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Spoon the melted butter over the tops of the lobster mixture for added flavor.
Place the butter lettuce leaves on a large serving platter. Spoon the lobster mixture into each lettuce leaf, dividing it evenly among them.
Serve immediately for best texture and taste, enjoying the rich flavors of the lobster roll without the carbs!
