2 whole lobsters (1 3/4 pounds each)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest, plus 1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest, plus 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon finely grated shallot
Coarse salt
