Ingredients
1 lb cooked lobster meat, chopped
2 tbsp butter
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tbsp sour cream
1 tsp Cajun seasoning (adjust to taste)
1 tsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Salt & black pepper, to taste
2 brioche buns or split-top hot dog buns, lightly toasted
Optional add-ins:
1 minced garlic clove (for added savoriness)
1/4 cup diced celery (for crunch)
Instructions
Sauté the Lobster
In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter.
Add chopped lobster meat and sauté for 1–2 minutes until warmed through and coated in butter.
Make the Creamy Cajun Sauce
In a bowl, mix together mayo, sour cream, Cajun seasoning, lemon juice, smoked paprika, parsley, salt, and pepper.
Stir until smooth and creamy.
Combine
Add the warmed lobster to the sauce and gently toss to coat.
Add garlic or celery here if using for extra depth or texture.
Toast the Buns
Lightly butter the buns and toast in a skillet or oven until golden brown on the edges.
Assemble & Serve
Fill toasted buns with the creamy lobster mixture.
Garnish with extra parsley if desired and serve warm.
Notes
Use fresh or frozen (then thawed) cooked lobster meat.
Adjust Cajun seasoning for your heat preference.
Celery adds a refreshing crunch and garlic enhances savory depth.
Don’t skip toasting the buns—it adds structure and buttery flavor.
