This delicious, easy salad features succulent lobster tossed with chopped asparagus and tomatoes in a light lemon dressing to enhance the sweet lobster meat. To save time, I buy the lobsters steamed from my local fishmonger.
If you’re lucky enough to live along the East coast to have access to fresh lobster… you’re lucky enough! But if not, steamed crab or even shrimp would also be wonderful in this salad.
Lobster Asparagus Chopped Salad
This delicious, easy salad features succulent lobster tossed with chopped asparagus and tomatoes in a light lemon dressing to enhance the flavor of sweet lobster meat.
Ingredients:

- 4 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- ¼ tsp kosher salt
- black pepper, to taste
- ½ cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
- 2 tbsp diced red onion
- 1 basil leaf, chopped
Directions:
- Bring a medium pot of water to a boil, add the asparagus and cook until tender yet firm, about 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and run under cold water to stop it from cooking further. Set aside.
