PREPARATION
Prep Time: 20 Minutes
Cook Time: 25 Minutes
Servings: 24 Hush Puppies

Creole Remoulade:

1. In a small bowl, whisk together all ingredients.
2. Refrigerate.

Lobster Hush Puppies:

1. Place steamer basket into large pot filled with 2 inches of cold water. Cover and bring to boil. Once boiling, add lobster tails to the basket. Cover and cook for 5-6 minutes. Remove tails from the pot. They should be completely cooked in the center of the meat. Once cooled, remove the meat and finely chop. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl, combine Tony Chachere's Crispy Creole Hush Puppy Mix, milk and egg. Gently fold in cooled lobster meat, red pepper, green onions, lemon zest and Gruyere cheese. Do not overmix.
3. Line large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place wire rack on top. Heat several inches of canola oil in large Dutch oven to 350°F. Add enough oil so hush puppies are completely submerged. Using a 1 ½-inch cookie scoop, drop batter into hot oil. Do not crowd the pot. Fry until hush puppies are a golden brown, about 4 minutes. Remove to prepared sheet.
4. Serve immediately with chilled Creole remoulade.
