Ingredients:
- 4 frozen lobster tails, defrosted (about 1 1/2 pounds)
- 1 small celery stalk, finely chopped
- 1 Tbsp. minced red onion
- 1 Tbsp, mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp. chopped tarragon leaves
- 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 4 whole wheat hot dog rolls, lightly toasted
Directions:
- Fill a large saucepan with enough water to come 1/2 inch up the side of the pan; cover and bring to a simmer. Add lobster tails, return to a simmer and partially cover. Cook until lobster is opaque throughout, about 8 minutes. Remove lobster from the pan and let cool. When cool enough to handle, remove shells and chop lobster meat into bite-size pieces.
- In a medium bowl, combine lobster, celery, onion, mayonnaise, tarragon, lemon juice and salt. Season with pepper to taste. Divide lobster salad among 4 rolls and serve.
