Lobster Bisque

This Lobster Bisque is lusciously rich and creamy, loaded with buttery flavor. It’s an indulgent dish that’s surprisingly easy to make at home!

Ingredients

2 whole lobster tails, cooked and chopped
4 cups seafood stock
1 cup heavy cream
1 onion, diced
2 celery stalks, diced
2 carrots, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup brandy or dry sherry
1 teaspoon tomato paste
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

In a large pot, melt a tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion, celery, and carrots, and sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for another minute, until fragrant.
Pour in the brandy or sherry and allow it to simmer for a minute, scraping any brown bits from the bottom of the pot.
Add the tomato paste, cayenne pepper, and seafood stock. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and let it simmer for about 20 minutes.
Using an immersion blender (or a regular blender in batches), blend the soup until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend only half of it.
Return the soup to low heat and stir in the heavy cream and the chopped lobster tails. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let it simmer for an additional 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Serve warm in bowls, garnished with fresh parsley. Enjoy this delectable lobster bisque with warm bread or crackers!
