New England Lobster Rolls

Directions

1. Wash hands with soap and water.

2. Rinse fresh produce.

3. In a 10-quart pot over high heat, combine water, wine, lemon halves, salt, bay leaves, coriander seeds, peppercorns and parsley; bring to a rolling boil.

4. Once boiling, using tongs, gently slide lobsters into the water, headfirst. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until lobsters are bright red. Using tongs, carefully remove lobsters, sideways so that any of the trapped liquid will drain from their shells. Transfer to a platter or cutting board and let cool.

4. Crack lobster shells and pick meat from tail and claws. Cut meat into bite-sized pieces and place in a large bowl. Add celery, lemon juice, chives and mayonnaise and mix well; season to taste with pepper.

5. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Spread flat sides of rolls with butter and cook for 2 minutes, cut side down, or until golden. Place lettuce leaves inside of buns, fill with lobster mixture and serve.
