1 ½ teaspoons all-purpose flour
½ cup whole milk, divided
¼ cup frozen peas, thawed
1 teaspoon chopped fresh tarragon
¼ teaspoon lemon zest
¾ teaspoon lemon juice
⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
⅛ teaspoon ground pepper
1 ½ tablespoons finely minced fresh chives, divided
1 (9 ounce) package refrigerated lobster ravioli (such as Trader Joe's)
3 ounces cooked lobster meat (Optional)
Whisk flour and 1/4 cup milk in a small bowl until smooth. Bring the remaining 1/4 cup milk just to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Whisk in the flour mixture; simmer, whisking constantly, until slightly thickened, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in peas, tarragon, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, pepper and 1 tablespoon chives. Cover and keep warm until ready to serve.
Meanwhile, prepare ravioli according to package directions; drain. Divide the ravioli evenly among 2 shallow bowls; top with the sauce, lobster (if using) and the remaining 1/2 tablespoon chives.
