Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

  2. 2

    Add Peppers and Artichokes

    Add the diced red bell peppers and chopped artichoke hearts to the pot. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peppers are softened.

  3. 3

    Combine Broth and Seasonings

    Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth, and season with salt and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Blend Soup

    Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can carefully transfer the soup to a blender in batches and blend until smooth.

  5. 5

    Add Crab and Cream

    Return the blended soup to the pot (if using a blender). Stir in the lump crab meat and heavy cream, and heat through on low heat for about 5 minutes. Do not boil.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
