Dill-Lemon-Caper Lobster Rolls

Cooked lobster tossed in a creamy dressing punctuated with dill, capers, and lemon offers a new take on the traditional lobster roll.
  • 3 Tbs. mayonnaise
  • 2 tsp. minced fresh dill
  • 2 tsp. drained capers
  • 1-1/2 tsp. fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp. finely grated lemon zest, plus the juice from 1 small lemon
  • 8 oz. cooked lobster meat, cut into bite-size pieces
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 split-top hot dog rolls
  • Butter lettuce leaves

In a medium bowl, mix the mayonnaise, dill, capers, lemon zest and lemon juice.

Gently mix the lobster meat into the dressing. Season to taste with salt  and pepper.

Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Spread the butter over the outside of the hot dog rolls and toast in the skillet until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Line each roll with lettuce leaves, fill with the lobster salad, and serve.
