Ingredients
- 2 pounds fresh Maine lobster
- 1 cup low sodium mayonnaise
- 1 celery stalk, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons green onions, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 hot dog buns or New England-style buns
- 4 leaves leaf lettuce
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the lobsters, cover, and cook for 8-10 minutes until the shells are bright red.
Step 2
Remove the lobsters from the pot and allow them to cool slightly. Once cooled, crack the shells and extract the meat. Cut the meat into large chunks and set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the low sodium mayonnaise, chopped celery, green onions, lemon juice, and freshly ground black pepper.
Step 4
Gently fold the lobster meat into the mayonnaise mixture, ensuring the meat is well-coated. Be careful not to break up the lobster chunks too much.
Step 5
Melt the unsalted butter in a skillet over medium heat.
Step 6
Split the hot dog buns or New England-style buns and lightly toast them in the skillet with the melted butter, until golden brown on each side.
Step 7
Line each toasted bun with a leaf of lettuce.
Step 8
Evenly distribute the lobster salad mixture into each bun.
Step 9
Serve immediately with a wedge of lemon on the side, if desired.
