Directions:

  1. If using thawed frozen lobster tails, cook in pot of boiling water until almost cooked through, about 6 minutes. Drain. Cool. Using kitchen shears, cut lobster shells open. Remove lobster meat; cut into bite-size pieces. Discard shells.
  2. Purée 4 cups corn with 1 1/4 cups broth in processor until almost smooth.
  3. Sauté bacon in large pot over medium heat until crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer bacon to paper towels. Pour off and discard all but 3 tablespoons drippings from pot.
  4. Add onions to pot; sauté until light golden, about 5 minutes. Add remaining 4 cups corn; sauté 3 minutes. Add carrots, celery, and cayenne; sauté until vegetables soften slightly, about 5 minutes.
  5. Add clam juice and 1 3/4 cups broth; simmer 10 minutes. Stir in corn puré and whipping cream; simmer 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. (Lobster, bacon, and soup can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and chill lobster and bacon separately.
  7. Cool soup slightly; chill uncovered until cold, then cover and keep chilled.
  8. Bring bacon to room temperature and bring soup to simmer before continuing.) Remove soup from heat; stir in sour cream.
  9. Melt butter in medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add lobster meat and sauté just until heated through, about 2 minutes.
  10. Ladle soup into bowls. Garnish each serving with lobster pieces, bacon, and chives and serve.
