Lobster Cheese & Garlic Rolls
Decadent lobster meat smothered in creamy, garlicky cheese sauce, tucked into buttery rolls, and baked to golden perfection. The ultimate indulgence!
Ingredients:
1 lb cooked lobster meat, chopped
4 split-top brioche or New England-style rolls
4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
(for garnish)
Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the Garlic Butter:
In a small bowl, combine melted butter with minced garlic. Brush the insides of the rolls with this garlic butter for extra flavor.
Make the Lobster Mixture:
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped lobster meat, mayonnaise, lemon juice, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Fold in half of the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese.
Stuff the Rolls:
Generously stuff each roll with the lobster mixture. Top with the remaining mozzarella, cheddar, and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese for that golden crust.
Bake:
Place the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly with golden-brown spots.
Garnish and Serve:
Remove from the oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve warm with a wedge of lemon for an extra zesty kick.
Pro Tip:
For added flavor, drizzle a little garlic butter over the rolls right before serving. Perfect for pairing with a crisp white wine or a refreshing lemonade.
