Quantities above make four portions. Calorie count is per serving.

Method

  1. Chop lobster meat into generous chunks. Keep it chunky for texture.
  2. Toss lobster gently with melted butter, lemon juice, celery, and cayenne.
  3. Butter the outside of split-top buns and toast in a skillet until golden on both sides.
  4. Line each bun with a lettuce leaf.
  5. Pile lobster mixture into buns, garnish with snipped chives, and serve with kettle chips.

Timing

Allow roughly 4 minutes of preparation and 14 minutes of cooking. Read the method through once before you start so nothing waits on a pan you could have had going already.
