LOBSTER BISQUE

LOBSTER BISQUE

 

 Serves: 6 | Level: Easy | Approximate Time: 30 minutes

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 lb. Lobster
  • 1 cup seafood stock
  • 2 medium size onions, (chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, (Please see notes for gluten-free)
  • ½ red onion diced
  • 1 cup of half & half (heavy cream if you would like a creamy bisque)
  • 2 tablespoons of Addy Daddy Cajun Soul seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Fill a pot with water that will just cover the lobster, and bring to a boil.
  2. After the water is at a boil add 1 1/2 tablespoons of Addy Daddy Cajun Soul seasoning to the boiling water and then add the lobster to the water for 7 minutes. After 7 minutes of cook time remove the lobster and cut into cubes and set aside.
  3. In a medium pot, melt the butter over medium heat. After butter has melted, add your chopped onions and cook until translucent, slowly whisk in flour to create a light roux.
  4. Once the texture is creamy, gradually pour in the stock and whisk continuously.
  5. Next, add half and half and continue to whisk, so that your half & half or cream does not curdle.
  6. Finally add the rest of the Addy Daddy Cajun Soul seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, and the cubed lobster.
  7. Bring bisque to boiling and simmer on low heat for 10 to 15 minutes.
  8. Serve and enjoy.
