Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, mix the lobster with cream cheese, lemon zest, chives, and a pinch of Old Bay (if using).
  • Butter the outsides of the bread slices. Optional: spread a thin layer of mayo on the outside for extra crisp.
  • On the unbuttered side of one slice, layer mozzarella and fontina, followed by the lobster mixture, then top with more cheese.
  • Place another slice of bread on top, buttered side facing out. Repeat for the second sandwich.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Grill sandwiches 3–4 minutes per side, pressing slightly, until golden brown and the cheese is melty.
  • Slice in half, serve warm, and enjoy the buttery lobster goodness!

Notes

  • Fresh lobster is best, but frozen (thawed and well-drained) works too.
  • Try brie or gruyère for extra decadence.
  • Serve with tomato bisque, kettle chips, or a light arugula salad.
