Creating Brown Butter Lobster Roll Pasta is a breeze if you follow these easy steps:

1. Cook the Pasta: Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Once boiling, add the linguine or fettuccine and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water and then drain the pasta.

2. Make the Brown Butter: In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Continue cooking it, stirring frequently, until it turns a rich golden brown color and develops a nutty aroma (approximately 5-7 minutes).

3. Add Garlic: Once the butter is browned, add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for another minute until fragrant. Be careful not to let the garlic burn.

4. Incorporate Lobster: Add the cooked lobster meat to the skillet, followed by the Old Bay seasoning, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes. Toss everything to coat the lobster in the brown butter mixture.

5. Combine with Pasta: Add the drained pasta to the skillet with the lobster mixture. Gradually add reserved pasta water, a little at a time, and toss until everything is well combined and the sauce reaches your desired consistency.

6. Finishing Touches: Stir in the mayonnaise, chives, salt, and pepper, mixing until the ingredients are evenly distributed. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

7. Serve Immediately: Plate the pasta. For presentation, garnish with additional chives and serve with lemon wedges on the side for a fresh pop of flavor.
