Rich-tasting fat-free Greek yogurt and a host of fresh herbs combine with lobster for a lighter take on a classic New England sandwich. This lobster roll features parsley, tarragon, chives, and capers and packs a flavorful punch. Lobster can get tough if overcooked, but there are a few tips that can help. Steaming lobster rather than boiling reduces the chances of overcooking, but it does take longer. It also produces a more tender lobster. If the antenna of the lobster pops off, that’s a sign that it’s done. A cooked lobster will often yield meat totaling about 20% of the total shell-on weight, so keep that in mind when purchasing lobster.
