Easy Lobster Bisque Recipe: Quick & Delicious

Ingredients

• 6 tablespoons butter
• 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon celery salt
• 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 4 cups half-and-half
• 1.5 cups lobster stock
• 3 cups cooked lobster meat, shredded
• 3 tablespoons tomato paste
• 3 tablespoons minced onion
• 3 tablespoons minced celery
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
• 0.5 teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
• 1 cup cream

Instructions

1. In a large pot, melt butter over medium heat. Incorporate flour, sea salt, celery salt, and black pepper into the melted butter. Slowly pour in half-and-half, stirring continuously to prevent lumps. Add lobster stock and stir well. Lower the heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, until the soup thickens, approximately 15 minutes.
2. Incorporate lobster meat, tomato paste, onion, and celery into the simmering soup. Season with paprika, thyme, and seafood seasoning. Continue to cook until the onion and celery are heated through, about 10 minutes. Add cream and stir gently. Cook until the bisque is hot, around 5 minutes.
