Traditionally lobster rolls are served on a lightly charred hot dog bun. I chose to serve mine on lightly charred Kaiser rolls, which were just as delicious. I couldn't bear to kill a lobster in my kitchen, so I purchased 4 frozen lobster tails for two sandwiches. I suppose you could use 1 or 2 whole lobsters or just buy precooked lobster meat from a fish market.
4 frozen lobster tails (or whatever you want to use)
2 tbsp mayonnaise
chopped fresh tarragon to taste
chopped scallions (or fresh chives)
1 lemon
salt & pepper
fresh mesclun greens
buns of choice
-Boil the thawed lobster in salted water for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit for about 3 minutes.
-Once cooled, crack open the lobster tails and remove the meat.
-Slice the lobster meat and set aside.
-In a small bowl combine the mayo, tarragon, scallions, and squeeze in lemon juice. Mix well and add salt and pepper to taste.
-Add lobster to the mix.
-Place buttered buns under the broiler until they are slightly charred.
-Take buns out, place some mesclun greens on and spoon lobster mix over it. ENJOY!
Serves: 2
Approximate time: 30 minutes
