Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of softened unsalted butter with ½ cup of finely chopped lobster meat and ½ cup of lump crab meat. Blend until creamy and well mixed, roughly 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 teaspoon of Old Bay seasoning to the seafood mixture. Mix thoroughly for another 2 minutes.
- Add in ¼ cup of finely chopped fresh parsley, along with salt and pepper to taste—about ½ teaspoon of each. Fold the herbs into the mixture for about 1 minute.
- Lay a sheet of parchment paper on a clean work surface. Spoon the seafood mixture onto the paper and shape it into a log, about 2 inches in diameter. Roll tightly around the mixture.
- Place the wrapped log in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours or until the mixture is firm.
- Once chilled, unwrap the log and place it on a cutting board. Slice the log into rounds, about ½ inch thick.
- Arrange the sliced Lobster & Crab Butter Bombs on a platter, serving them chilled on toast, assorted crackers, or a fresh vegetable platter.
