Ingredients:
- 1 lb (450g) cooked lobster meat, chopped into bite-sized pieces
- 1/4 cup (60g) plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp (30g) avocado oil mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp (15ml) fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp (5g) Old Bay seasoning
- 1 stalk (10g) celery, finely diced
- 1 tbsp (15g) fresh chives, minced
- 1/4 tsp (1.5g) cracked black pepper
- 1 pack (12 count) Hawaiian rolls
Instructions:
- Whisk the base. In a large bowl, combine 1/4 cup Greek yogurt, 2 tbsp avocado oil mayonnaise, 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice, and 1 tsp Old Bay seasoning. Note: Whisk until the mixture is completely smooth and pale.
- Fold in lobster. Gently stir in 1 lb chopped cooked lobster meat, 1 stalk finely diced celery, and 1 tbsp minced chives. Fold until the lobster is coated in a velvety layer without breaking the chunks of meat.
- Chill the mix. Place the bowl in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes. Note: This allows the flavors to marry and ensures the filling stays cool during the initial bake.
- Prep the oven. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Slice the rolls. Use a serrated knife to slice the entire 12 count block of Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally. Slice carefully until you have two equal slabs without detaching the individual buns.
- Base placement. Place the bottom slab of buns onto a parchment lined baking sheet.
- Fill the buns. Scoop equal portions of the chilled lobster mixture onto the bottom buns. Press lightly so the filling is level and doesn't spill over the edges.
- Top and glaze. Place the top slab of rolls over the filling. Mix 3 tbsp melted unsalted butter with 1/2 tsp garlic powder and brush it generously over the top.
- Bake and broil. Bake for 8-10 minutes until the edges are just starting to brown. Switch to the broiler for 1-2 minutes until the tops are mahogany colored and fragrant.
- Final touch. Sprinkle 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley over the hot buns and slice into 12 individual sliders.
