Ingredients
Scale
Slider Mixture
- 1 lb freshly cooked lobster meat
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup finely chopped celery
- 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 tbsp chopped chives
Sliders
- 12 slider buns (soft and buttery)
- 4 tbsp melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the sliders.
- Prepare Lobster Filling: In a mixing bowl, gently combine the freshly cooked lobster meat, mayonnaise, finely chopped celery, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and chopped chives until everything is evenly coated and mixed without breaking up the lobster pieces.
- Assemble Sliders: Slice each slider bun horizontally, then fill each bun generously with the lobster mixture, ensuring an even distribution.
- Add Butter Topping: Brush the tops of the filled slider buns with melted butter to help achieve a golden and flavorful crust during baking.
- Bake: Place the filled and buttered buns on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown and the filling is heated through.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve the sliders warm, garnished with extra chopped chives or lemon wedges as desired for an added fresh touch.
Notes
- Use freshly cooked lobster for the best flavor and texture; leftovers can be used as well.
- Do not overmix the lobster filling to retain the lobster’s texture.
- Slider buns should be soft and buttery for a perfect bite and contrast with the lobster filling.
- Brush the butter on buns right before baking to ensure a crispy, golden top.
- Serve immediately after baking for optimal warmth and flavor.
