Frozen lobster comes in big chunks, so we snip them into smaller chunks with scissors. This makes this recipe far easier than cooking and breaking down live lobsters, but if you have the time and really want to impress, there should be no stopping you from going that route. The creamy sauce hits all the right flavor profiles with fresh red onion, tangy Dijon mustard, and a little bit of heat with the cayenne—you should have it on hand at all times for any protein. The chopped celery also provides brightness and crunch. So easy and quick to make (under 10 minutes!), you'll want to make these lobster sandwiches again and again.
