Blt Lobster Rolls Recipes

WARM LOBSTER ROLLS

Steps:

• Cut the lobster meat in large (3/4-inch) dice. Heat 3 tablespoons of the butter in a medium (10-inch) saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the lobster, celery, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 to 3 minutes, until just heated through. Off the heat, sprinkle the lobster with the dill, parsley, and half of the lemon juice. Stir well.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a large (12-inch) saute pan, until the butter sizzles. Place the rolls in the pan on their sides (you are toasting the outsides, not the insides) and cook over medium-high heat for 2 minutes on each side, until nicely browned.
• Place the rolls, cut side up, on a platter. Divide the lobster mixture among the 6 rolls and sprinkle with extra dill, salt, and the remaining lemon juice. Serve hot while the rolls are crisp on the outside and the lobster filling is hot.

Steps:

• Lightly butter the insides of the buns or rolls and line with lettuce leaves. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, lime juice, hot pepper sauce, salt and pepper until well blended. Mix in the green onion and celery, then lightly mix in the lobster so it just gets coated without falling apart.
• Stuff the lobster filling into the buns and sprinkle parsley, basil or tarragon lightly over the filling.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place a baking rack on a sheet pan and lay the bacon on the rack in a single layer. Roast the bacon for 15 to 20 minutes, until browned. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels and set aside.
• Meanwhile, for the dressing, whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, relish, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl and set aside. Slice the avocados crosswise 1/4 inch thick, place the slices in a bowl with the lemon juice, toss gently, and set aside.
• To assemble, place 4 slices of toast on a board and slather them generously with the dressing. On each sandwich, place first a lettuce leaf, then a layer of avocado, then a slice of tomato. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Cut a slice of bacon in half and place both halves on the tomato. Top with a quarter of the lobster. Generously spread more sauce on the remaining 4 slices of toast and place them, sauce side down, on the sandwiches. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add the lobster tails and boil until the shells are bright red and the lobster is just cooked through, about 7 minutes. Drain and submerge in a bowl of ice water to cool.
• Using kitchen shears, remove the shells by the underside down the middle and then cutting the top. Pull out the meat, rinsing or wiping off any residual shell fragments, and dice into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Put the bacon in a cold, large skillet and cook over medium heat, turning occasionally, until crisp and browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain on a paper-towel-lined plate.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the 1/3 cup mayonnaise, shallots, celery, capers, vinegar and lemon zest and juice. Fold in the diced lobster. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Lay out the bread slices on a work surface and spread each with 1/2 tablespoon mayonnaise. Top half of the slices with 2/3 cup lobster salad, 2 slices bacon and 2 tomato slices. Season the tomatoes with salt and pepper. Top with a piece of lettuce and cover with the remaining bread slices.
• Slice the sandwiches in half, securing each half with a frilly toothpick.
