Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lemons, halved
Sea salt
3 1 1/4-to-1 1/2-pound live lobsters
1/3 cup mayonnaise
7 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
6 top-split hot dog buns
1/4 cup roughly chopped celery leaves
1/4 teaspoon celery salt

Steps:

  • Fill a large steamer or pot with about 2 inches of water. Squeeze the juice of 1 lemon into the water, then add the lemon halves and 1 tablespoon sea salt to the pot. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
  • Place the lobsters in the steamer basket or directly in the pot; cover and steam until the shells turn bright red, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the pot with tongs and rinse under cold water to cool slightly.
  • Remove the meat from the lobster shells: Twist off the claws, then break off the tail. Pull off the flippers. Insert your thumb into the flipper end of the tail and force out the meat. Crack the claws with the flat side of a knife or a lobster cracker; remove the meat. Roughly chop the lobster meat. Transfer to a bowl and chill 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whisk the mayonnaise, 4 tablespoons melted butter and the juice of the remaining lemon in a large bowl. Add the lobster meat and toss to coat. Season with salt.
  • Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium heat. Brush the outside of the hot dog buns with 2 tablespoons melted butter. Toast the buns until slightly golden, about 1 minute per side. Divide the lobster salad among the buns. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon melted butter and sprinkle with the celery leaves and celery salt.

LOBSTER ROLLS

I grew up in Nova Scotia where seafood was cheap. My Mom and grandmothers had some pretty inventive ways of making lobster 'not-boring!' Now, lobster is a treat and costs a fortune. I've paid over ten dollars for one of these lobster rolls in Cape Cod and it wasn't half as good or half as big as the ones my Mom taught me to make. This is a wonderful summer (or winter) treat and makes a fancy luncheon to impress your friends. (And no, I don't eat the green stuff in the lobster!)

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
Juice of 1 lemon (about 2 tablespoons)
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
6 toasted, buttered split-top potato buns, torn into hunks (see Cook's Note)
4 slices bacon, cooked until crispy and crumbled
3 scallions, thinly sliced on a bias
2 ribs celery, thinly sliced
3/4 pound cooked lobster meat, chopped
1 ripe avocado, peeled and cubed

Steps:

  • Mix together the mayonnaise, tarragon, vinegar, garlic powder, salt, pepper and lemon juice in a large bowl. Add the tomatoes, buns, bacon, scallions and celery to the dressing and toss to coat. Fold in the lobster and avocado. Serve immediately!

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make all the difference in the flavor of your lobster roll panzanella. Fresh lobster meat, juicy tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, and flavorful herbs will create a dish that is truly special.
  • Cook the lobster properly. Overcooked lobster is tough and chewy, so it's important to cook it carefully. The best way to do this is to steam or boil the lobster until it is just cooked through. You can also grill or broil the lobster, but be sure to keep an eye on it so that it doesn't overcook.
  • Make sure the bread is toasted. Toasted bread will help to hold up to the other ingredients in the panzanella and will also add a nice flavor to the dish.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different ingredients. There are many ways to make lobster roll panzanella, so feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors. You might try adding roasted corn, avocado, or even mango to your panzanella.

Conclusion:

Lobster roll panzanella is a delicious and refreshing summer dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal preferences. So next time you're looking for a light and flavorful meal, give lobster roll panzanella a try. You won't be disappointed!
