lobster blt

1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tbsp. fresh lime juice
1 small shallot, minced
1 small garlic clove, mashed
2 tbsp. snipped chives
1 tbsp. finely chopped tarragon
1 tsp. sweet paprika
1/2 tsp. celery seeds
2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cups coarsely chopped cooked lobster meat (about 1 pound), from two 1 1/4-pound lobsters
6 oz. sliced bacon
2 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened
4 brioche rolls, split
1 tomato, thickly sliced

In a medium bowl, whisk the mayonnaise with the lime juice, shallot, garlic, chives, tarragon, paprika, celery seeds and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and fold in the chopped cooked lobster meat. Refrigerate until chilled.

In a skillet, cook the bacon over moderately high heat until crisp, about 7 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.

Preheat a grill pan. Spread the butter on the cut sides of the rolls. Grill the rolls cut sides down over moderate heat until toasted, about 3 minutes. Transfer the rolls to plates. Mound the lobster salad on the grilled rolls. Top with the crisp bacon and tomato slices and serve.

The recipe can be prepared through Step 1 and refrigerated, covered, for up to 8 hours.
