8 hot dog rolls (bakery style preferred)
3 cups seafood, rough chopped (any mix of shrimp, crab, scallops or fish)
2 medium celery ribs, chopped fine (including the leaves)
4 large shallots, fine chopped
2 cups iceberg lettuce, shredded
1 cup mayonnaise, no miracle whip (a bit more or less depending on how creamy you like the salad) or 1 cup low fat
12-1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 pinch Old Bay Seasoning, this is especially important if you didn't cook your own seafood (any seafood seasoning will work)
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 -2 teaspoon fresh parsley, fine chopped
12 cut butter, melted
salt
pepper

1
Seafood -- NOTE from above: If using fresh seafood - I simply season with Old Bay or any seafood seasoning and then pan saute in a little olive oil.
2
This will work for shrimp, scallops or any white fish.
3
I can't give exact cooking times as they will all be different.
4
Once cooked until tender, transfer to a plate, cover and refrigerate before using.
5
Rough chop before adding to the dressing.
6
Salad -- In a medium size bowl, mix the mayonnaise, lemon, parsley, shallots, celery, salt, pepper, cayenne, and Old Bay (if you did not cook your own seafood).
7
Add in the cooked chilled seafood and stir well to combine.
8
Be careful not to over mix as you do not want to break up the seafood.
9
Butter and Buns -- In a measuring cup or any cup or bowl, melt the butter in the microwave.
10
Just 1 minute or so on medium.
11
Brush the butter on the inside of the hot dog rolls/buns and put under the broiler for just a few minutes until slightly brown.
12
I use the second shelf so they don't brown too quickly.
13
Remove and let cool slightly.
14
Serve -- I like to add 1/4 cup of the shredded lettuce in the bottom of the buns and then STUFF with the salad and enjoy!
15
It is just a great salad.
16
Worthy of company or a dinner party.
17
ENJOY!
