Broiled Lobster, Chili Sauce

Cut the claws from three one-pound live lobsters, crack them with a cleaver, place in a small roasting tin and set to bake in the oven for twenty minutes. Split the bodies of the three lobsters in even halves, lengthwise, remove the gravel from the heads, then arrange on a double broiler. Season with a teaspoon salt and half tablespoon paprika, evenly spread two tablespoons oil over the six bodies and broil on the shell side for ten minutes, then set in the oven for ten minutes, cut parts upward. Remove, dress the bodies and claws on a large dish, decorate with six quarters lemon and parsley greens and serve with a chili sauce separately.
