Brown-Butter Lobster Roll
2 live lobsters
Martin’s Potato Rolls (or your favorite split-top top-loader buns) 5 tablespoons butter (divided
use)
Chives, chopped for garnish
Instructions: In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook lobsters until they turn red, about 8 to 10 minutes. Allow lobsters to cool, then remove the meat and chop into ½-inch pieces.
Place a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Toast the buns on both sides. Set aside.
Place the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook until the butter starts to brown and smell nutty, about 4 minutes.
Fill the toasted bun with the lobster meat and drizzle with the browned butter. Garnish with chives.
