The Lobster Roll Taco · 5:52 · Video: Ethan Chlebowski · Watch at the source

In short: This video demonstrates how to combine the classic flavors of a Maine lobster roll with the format of a taco. By pairing butter-poached lobster with a creamy slaw and a custom spice blend, this recipe offers a refined twist on a casual staple.

The recipe centers on a cayenne-infused butter poaching technique for the lobster, which is warmed for approximately two minutes. The base is complemented by a slaw made from red cabbage and pickled jalapenos, bound together with mayonnaise and seasoned to taste.

A key step involves utilizing the residual butter from the poaching process to toast the flour tortilla, ensuring a browned, flavorful vessel for the assembly. The dish is finished with a spice mix inspired by Luke's Lobster, providing a balanced profile of heat and acidity.
