So a good starting point is: https://wiki.wireshark.org/SSL#Complete_SSL_decryption_walk_through <https://wiki.wireshark.org/SSL#Complete_SSL_decryption_walk_through> which describes the basics of decrypting traffic assuming you are using openssl as a server. 

From this you can see that you either need access to the private key of the server (works for RSA cipher suites) or to be able to create a SSL key log file from the DNS client (not so easy, not directly supported in Stubby).
