Hi Everyone,
Happy Sunday to you! Today around the #SundaySupper we had to bring soup to the table. I was kind of torn on what kind of soup to make. I make soup all of the time but my brain went dead when I had to come up with one. I debated about a Chipotle Black Bean or Butternut Squash Soup, but I decided to step out of my comfort zone and try something I have never made before which is Lobster Bisque.
I have to say I am pretty happy with the outcome of the soup. It’s creamy, full of flavor and not overly fishy! I am not a big fish person. I had two lobster tails that I bought from Trader Joe’s that I intended on making for Valentine’s Day, but that never happened. What better way to use my lobster tails is to make a healthy, decadent soup! I felt like a rich person making this! lol
Since I only had two lobster tails, this recipe makes two servings. Perfect for a romantic evening. This soup makes a fabulous appetizer or you can have it alone with some crusty bread and a salad. Yum! Were not to fancy in my house, so we had it with pretzel bread. The soup in general takes about 30 minutes to make, which I don’t think is to bad and it’s pretty simple too!! Love that!
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter (I used brumble and brown)
- ¼ cup diced carrot
- ¼ cup finely chopped onion
- ¼ cup finely chopped celery
- ½ tsp garlic, minced
- 3 cups chicken stock
- ¼ tsp. creole seasoning
- 1 dash worcestershire sauce
- 2 tsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp water
- ¼ cup greek yogurt
- 2 lobster tails (7 oz total), chopped into bite size pieces(not cooked)
- In a large pot add butter, once melted, add carrots, onions and celery, cook until slightly softened, stirring constantly for about 5 minutes. Add chicken stock, creole seasoning and worcestershire sauce to pot and cook until vegetables are cooked through, about 10 minutes.
- In a small bowl add cornstarch and water; mix until smooth and stir into soup.
- Add lobster and cook until lobster is firm and opaque in color, about 7 minutes. Just before serving, whisk in greek yogurt.
- Serve immediatly
I had fun with today recipe! I really felt like a chef making this wonderful soup! To me these kind of soups seem intimidating, but this one wasn’t! I am really happy with it!
I can’t wait to see what other soup recipes that the group at #SundaySupper made! Be sure to check them out, I certainly will! After all, it’s soup and you know how much I love my soup!
Have a great rest of the weekend!
Toodles,
Jennifer
