Provided by Ambervim

Categories     Low Protein

Time 7m

Yield 1 Batch

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 ounces imitation crabmeat (or lobster, it is usually Pollack. Sometimes packed in 4 oz, either is fine)
1 cup celery, chopped
1/4 cup onion, chopped (Vidalia, red or yellow)
1 apple, chopped (or use whatever fruit is in season)
1/4 cup plain yogurt (or Greek plain)
1/4 cup mayonnaise (if this will sit out, just use yogurt)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Mix it all up and enjoy.
  • Serving ideas:.
  • Over a bed of lettuce.
  • In an opened tomato.
  • With more fruit around the edge.
  • On crackers.
  • As a sandwich.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest lobster possible. Fresh lobster meat will be firm and have a slightly briny smell. Avoid lobster that is slimy or has a strong odor.
  • Cook the lobster properly. Overcooked lobster will be tough and chewy. To prevent this, cook the lobster just until it is opaque and white throughout. Use a lobster pot and a steamer basket to cook your lobster. Bring salted water to a boil, add the lobster, and cook for 10-12 minutes per pound, or until the meat is cooked through.
  • Remove the lobster meat from the shell. Once the lobster is cooked, remove the meat from the shell. Be careful not to tear the meat. You can use a lobster cracker or kitchen shears to help you remove the meat.
  • Prepare the salad. Combine the cooked lobster meat, mayonnaise, celery, onion, parsley, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Stir until well combined.
  • Serve the salad. Serve the lobster salad immediately or chill it for later. Lobster salad can be served on a bed of lettuce, in a sandwich, or on crackers.

Whether you are serving it as an appetizer, a main course, or a side dish, lobster salad is sure to be a hit.
