Description

Get ready to elevate your burger game with this delicious Lobster Roll Burger! A fresh, buttery lobster tossed in creamy mayo dressing, served on a toasted brioche bun. Perfect for seafood lovers, this dish combines the richness of lobster with the comfort of a burger, making it a gourmet yet easy-to-make treat for any occasion.


Ingredients

– 4 fresh lobster tails (about 1.5 lbs)

– 4 brioche buns

– 1/4 cup unsalted butter

– 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

– 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

– 2 tablespoons mayonnaise

– 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

– Salt and pepper, to taste

– 1 tablespoon olive oil (for grilling the buns)

– Optional: Lettuce, tomato, pickles, or other garnishes


Instructions

1. Cook the Lobster: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add lobster tails and cook for 5-7 minutes, until the shells are bright red and the meat is opaque. Remove from water and let cool slightly. Once cooled, remove the lobster meat from the shells and chop into bite-sized pieces.

 

2. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, combine mayo, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, chopped parsley, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

 

3. Grill the Buns: Lightly brush brioche buns with olive oil and toast on a grill or skillet over medium heat until golden brown and crispy.

 

4. Assemble the Burgers: Gently toss the chopped lobster meat with the prepared mayo dressing. Place a generous amount on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Add optional garnishes like lettuce or tomato if desired. Top with the other half of the bun.

 

5. Serve: Enjoy this savory lobster roll burger with your favorite side dishes like fries or a salad. Serve immediately and savor the flavors!

Notes

– For extra flavor, try adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on top of the lobster before serving.

– Be careful not to overcook the lobster to keep the meat tender and juicy.

– Brioche buns add a sweet, buttery flavor, but you can swap them for other buns like toasted hamburger buns or soft rolls.

– You can substitute mayo with Greek yogurt for a lighter option.

– If you prefer a spicier kick, try adding a dash of hot sauce to the mayo dressing.
