DIRECTIONS
|
|
1:
Rinse the lobster meat and pick through for any loose shells. Drain thoroughly so the mayo sauce doesn't get watery. Chop or tear into large chunks and set aside.
|
|
|
|
2:
In a large bowl, mix the celery, mayonnaise, chives, lemon juice, lemon zest, kosher salt and ground black pepper. Taste for seasoning.
|
|
|
|
3:
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter and add the lobster meat. Cook, stirring for 2 minutes until warmed through and buttery all over. Use a slotted spoon to dish the lobster meat into the mayonnaise mixture and toss to coat.
|
|
|
|
4:
Discard butter and juice released from the lobster and wipe out the skillet. Melt the remaining butter in the skillet over medium heat; toast the buns on the cut sides about 2 minutes each side until golden and toasty.
Load each bun equally with lobster meat and garnish with more chives if desired. Serve with potato chips.
