Time 21m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds cooked Maine lobster meat (claw, arm, and knuckle meat)
¼ cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh chopped dill
1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon black pepper
10 New England style frankfurter rolls
5 tablespoons butter (softened)

Steps:

  • For the Lobster Salad: Drain the cooked lobster meat in a colander for 5 minutes. Set out a large mixing bowl. Then chop the fresh herbs.
  • If using claw meat, there is no need to chop it, but you can if you want smaller pieces. (If using lobster tails, chop it into bite-size pieces.) Move the lobster meat to the mixing bowl and add the mayonnaise, dill, parsley, salt, garlic powder, and pepper. Mix well.
  • Cover and chill under ready to serve.
  • For the Toasted Rolls: Spread both flat sides of the New England rolls with a generous amount of butter.
  • Heat a large skillet (or griddle) to medium heat. Place the rolls flat-side-down in the skillet. Toast for 1-3 minutes until golden-brown. Then flip and toast the other side for 1-3 minutes. Remove and repeat as needed.
  • Once all of the rolls are perfectly toasted, load them with lobster salad and serve!
