# Ingredients:
01 -
1 ½ pounds fresh lobster meat, cooked and chopped
02 -
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
03 -
½ cup mayonnaise
04 -
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
05 -
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
06 -
Salt and pepper to taste
07 -
4 hot dog buns or split-top rolls
08 -
Fresh chives, chopped for garnish (optional)
09 -
Lettuce leaves for serving (optional)
# Instructions:
01 -
If using live lobster, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the lobster for about 8-12 minutes until the shell turns bright red and the meat is opaque.
02 -
Remove the lobster from the pot and cool under running water. Once cooled, crack the shell and remove the meat. Chop into bite-sized pieces.
03 -
In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Adjust the seasoning according to your taste.
04 -
Gently fold the chopped lobster into the dressing, ensuring it’s evenly coated without breaking the lobster too much.
05 -
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet. Toast the hot dog buns lightly until golden brown on both sides.
06 -
Place a few lettuce leaves (if using) inside each bun. Scoop a generous amount of the lobster mixture on top.
07 -
Sprinkle with chopped chives if desired. Serve immediately while still warm.
