Description
Flaky croissants filled with lemony lobster and fresh herbs make this buttery roll a luxurious, no-cook brunch or light lunch favorite.
Ingredients
1/2 lb cooked lobster meat, chopped
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon finely chopped celery
1 tablespoon chopped chives or parsley
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 large croissants, halved lengthwise
Optional: extra melted butter for brushing croissants
Optional: lettuce leaves for layering
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine lobster meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, lemon zest, celery, chives or parsley, salt, and pepper. Stir gently until the lobster is well coated.
Lightly brush the inside of each croissant half with melted butter.
If desired, place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each croissant.
Evenly spoon the lobster mixture into each croissant.
Serve immediately, or refrigerate for 15 minutes before serving for a chilled, refreshing version.
Notes
Use fresh or high-quality frozen lobster meat for best flavor.
Brioche buns or toasted rolls can be used in place of croissants.
Add a dash of hot sauce for a spicy kick.
Serve with kettle chips, fruit salad, or a light green salad for a complete meal.
