Lobster Rolls with Lemon Vinaigrette and Garlic Butter

Ingredients for Lobster Rolls with Lemon Vinaigrette and Garlic Butter

• 4 (1 1/4-to 675g) live lobsters

• 45ml fresh lemon juice

• 80ml extra-virgin olive oil

• 80ml thinly sliced spring onions

• 1/4 cup finely chopped peeled celery

• 1/4 cup celery leaves

• 1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley

• 1/2 stick unsalted butter

• 3 garlic cloves, smashed

• 6 hot dog buns, preferably top-split

• Accompaniment: lemon wedges

Prepare a gas grill for direct-heat cooking over medium heat; see Grilling Procedure .

Plunge 2 lobsters headfirst into a large pot of salted boiling water and cook, partially covered, over medium-high heat 8 minutes (for 575g lobsters) to 9 minutes (for 675g lobsters) from time they enter water. Transfer with tongs to an ice bath and let stand until completely cooled. Return water to a boil and cook and cool remaining 2 lobsters. Remove meat from claws, joints, and tails. Coarsely chop meat.

Whisk together lemon juice, oil, and 1/2 teaspoons salt in a large bowl. Whisk in spring onions, celery, celery leaves, and parsley, then add lobster and gently toss. Season with salt.

Melt butter with garlic in a small saucepan over low heat, mashing garlic with a spoon.

Brush inside of buns with garlic butter. Grill, buttered side down, until golden, about 1 minute.

Fill buns with lobster.
