Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lobster

    In a large pot, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the lobster tails and cook until they turn bright red, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the lobster, let cool, then remove the meat from the shells and chop into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same pot, add the remaining butter. Sauté the onion, carrots, and celery until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for another minute.

  3. 3

    Build the Base

    Add the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes, then pour in the white wine, scraping the bottom of the pot to deglaze. Cook until the wine reduces by half.

  4. 4

    Add the Stock

    Pour in the seafood stock and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  5. 5

    Blend the Soup

    Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, you can blend only half of it.

  6. 6

    Finish the Bisque

    Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Add the reserved lobster meat and heat through.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve hot.
