Lobster Salad
Description
Lobster Salad uses about 1.5 pounds of cooked lobster meat cut into uniform pieces, which creates a tender and sweet base. The dressing is a blend of mayonnaise for creaminess and lemon juice for acidity, balanced with finely chopped celery for mild crunch and chives for a subtle onion note. Seasoning with salt and black pepper rounds out the flavors without overpowering the lobster's natural sweetness.
The salad is mixed gently to maintain lobster pieces intact and served either right away to enjoy fresh flavors or chilled up to four hours to deepen the taste melding. Garnishing with additional chives adds color and an herbal note.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds lobster meat approximately 3 1/2 cups, cut into 3/4 inch pieces, cooked

- 1 tablespoon chives thinly sliced, plus more for garnish

- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place the lobster meat, mayonnaise, lemon juice, celery, chives, salt and pepper in a bowl. Stir gently to combine.
