Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 3 cups white flour
- 1 1/3 cups lukewarm water
- 2 teaspoons yeast
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1/4 cup butter
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
- 1 pound lobster meat (preferably claws)
- Lemon wedges, for squeezing
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix the yeast and lukewarm water. Let it sit for a few minutes until the yeast is dissolved.
- Add the salt and flour to the yeast mixture. Work with your hands until the dough is smooth. If the dough is too dry, add a bit more water.
- Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let the dough rise for 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
- While the dough is rising, prepare the garlic butter. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Add the finely chopped garlic and simmer for a minute. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped parsley. If using unsalted butter, add a pinch of salt.
- Once the dough has risen, divide it into portions and roll each into a thin flatbread.
- Cook the flatbreads on a hot, dry skillet for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until they are puffed and slightly charred.
- To assemble the lobster roll, place lobster meat on a flatbread, drizzle with garlic butter, and squeeze a lemon wedge over the top. Roll up the flatbread and enjoy.
Notes
The flatbread dough can be stored in the fridge for up to a week, making it versatile for other uses like pizza dough or small buns. If you prefer, you can use store-bought flatbreads to save time. For a richer flavor, consider using salted butter in the garlic butter sauce.
