Well this was fun! I tweaked the recipe for New England Lobster Rolls from A Family Feast site.
This came out so well - we can hardly believe it. I had been inspired to do this for some time. Pam loves, loves, loves these. But it was not until I saw that you can buy frozen lobster meat at Meijer that I decided to give it a try. I might do this again with lobster tails - but we will definitely do this again! From the Family Feast site: "If you are using live lobsters that you will cook yourself, the yield is about 25%. So for four pounds of live lobsters, you will end up with one pound of cooked meat (give or take a few ounces depending on the size of the lobsters."
Ingredients (for two large Lobster Rolls)
8 oz Lobster meat, loosely chopped into bite sized chunks
3 tbsp Olive oil mayonnaise (adjust as desired)
1 tsp Lemon juice
¼ cup Celery, sliced thinly
1 tsp Parsley, dried
1/2 tsp Celery seeds
Kosher salt and black pepper to taste.
Rolls (you can use Italian or French bread or split-top hot dog rolls)
Directions
1. Place the cooked lobster meat in large bowl.
2. Add mayonnaise, lemon juice, celery, parsley, celery seeds, Kosher salt and black pepper. Mix thoroughly.
3. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for around an hour.
4. After the hour, divide the lobster salad on the rolls. You can add lettuce on the lobster roll if you prefer.
Enjoy!
