Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Base

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

  2. 2

    Add Tomato Paste and Flour

    Stir in the tomato paste and cook for another 2 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the mixture and stir well to combine, cooking for an additional 2 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Seafood Stock

    Gradually pour in the seafood stock, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

  4. 4

    Incorporate Cream and Meats

    Reduce the heat to low and slowly stir in the heavy cream, lobster meat, and crab meat. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until heated through.

  5. 5

    Season the Bisque

    Add sherry, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Ladle the bisque into bowls, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
