Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Base

    In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, celery, and carrots. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are soft and fragrant.

  2. 2

    Add Garlic and Flour

    Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir well to combine, cooking for about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Broth and Seasonings

    Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Add the thyme, bay leaves, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Stew

    Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  5. 5

    Add Lobster and Cream

    Stir in the lobster meat and heavy cream. Continue to simmer for another 5-10 minutes until the lobster is heated through.

  6. 6

    Final Touches

    Remove bay leaves, adjust seasoning to taste, and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
