It's so easy to cook lobster that our Quick Lobster Bisque is a great way to switch things up any night of the week. Get that water boiling!

What You'll Need

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons minced onion
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3 cups milk
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 cup dry sherry or seafood broth
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 cup chopped, cooked lobster meat (about 1 pound)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

What to Do

  1. In a soup pot over medium heat, melt butter. Saute onion 1 minute, or until tender. Add flour, stirring until blended. Cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Gradually add milk, whipping cream, sherry, salt, and paprika; bring just to a simmer. 
     
  2. Cook uncovered 15 to 18 minutes, or until slightly thickened. (Do not boil!) Stir in lobster and chives and cook 2 to 3 minutes, or until heated through; serve immediately.

Notes

  • How about serving this with some delicious rolls that are easy and quick to throw together, so you can sop up every last drop?!

1/1/17. Made this with leftover lobster from New Years Eve. Absolutely delicious, easy to make, and does not make a ton of soup! Yikes is this good. Added cooked potato, corn, carrott, and 1/8 teas. White pepper.

i would of liked the test kitchen to go step by step on how to make lobster Bisque, video's are so much easier to learn by

My suggestion is to use leeks instead of onion and sub 1 cup of chicken broth for the sherry and to add some chopped red pepper.
