Lobster rolls are always a summer favorite because they are fresh, filling, and a little fancy. The succulent chunks of fresh lobster meat, delicately sweet and briny, are nestled within a buttery, toasted roll. Accompanied by a creamy dressing, which is a blend of mayonnaise, lemon juice, and chives, the lobster meat is elevated with a subtle tanginess and a creamy consistency that coats every bite. Feel free to purchase frozen lobster and thaw it to save on the cost!

Ingredients
- 1 Lb Lobster Meat
- 1/4 Cup Minced Celery
- 1/4 Cup Mayonnaise

- 1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
- 1/4 Tsp Table Salt
- 4 Split-top Brioche, New England style hot dog buns

Instructions
- Dry your lobster and chop or tear it into large chunks. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix the celery, mayonnaise, chives, lemon juice, kosher salt and ground black pepper. Taste for seasoning.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat and add the lobster meat. Cook, stirring constantly for 2 minutes until warmed through. Transfer the lobster to the mayonnaise mixture and toss to coat. Discard butter and juice released from the lobster and wipe out the skillet. Melt the remaining butter in the skillet over medium heat; toast the buns on the cut sides about 2 minutes each side until golden and toasty.
- Load each bun equally with lobster meat and garnish with more chives if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
