BUTTERY LOBSTER ROLLS
ACTIVE: 25 min l TOTAL: 40 min l MAKES: 4
Kosher salt
3 live lobsters (about 2 pounds each)
1 stick unsalted butter

1. Bring 2 inches of salted water to a boil in a large stockpot. Add the lobsters, cover and steam until bright red, 9 to 10 minutes. Remove the lobsters to a baking sheet with tongs and let cool. Shell the lobsters (see below). Cut the lobster meat into ¾-inch chunks, discarding any cartilage from the claws.

3. Wipe out the skillet. Add the remaining 6 tablespoons butter and the lobster meat. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook, stirring gently, until the lobster is just warmed through, 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the chives and tarragon; season with salt. Divide among the buns; sprinkle with paprika.
