Recipe of the Month: Lobster Bisque

Ingredients

3 tablespoons butter
¼ cup chopped fresh mushrooms
2 tablespoons chopped onion
2 tablespoons chopped celery
2 tablespoons chopped carrot
1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
⅛ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 ½ cups half-and-half
½ cup dry white wine
½ pound cooked lump lobster meat

Preparation

  1. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the mushrooms, onion, celery, and carrot. Cook and stir until tender, about 10 minutes.
  2. Stir in the chicken broth, and season with salt and cayenne pepper. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 10 minutes.
  3. Add the onions and peppers to the pot and cook them until they wilt. If the bacon bits stuck to the bottom start to get too dark, add an ounce of water and they will dissolve promptly with the help of a wooden spoon.
  4. Return to the saucepan, and stir in the half-and-half, white wine, and remaining lobster meat. Cook over low heat, stirring frequently until thickened, about 30 minutes.

Enjoy!
