Recipe of Seafood Bisque
Ingredients: ¼ cup unsalted butter ¼ cup all-purpose flour 1 small onion, finely chopped ½ cup celery, finely chopped ½ cup carrot, finely chopped 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 tsp paprika ½ tsp dried thyme ½ tsp dried oregano ½ tsp salt ¼ tsp black pepper 2 cups fish or seafood stock 1 cup whole milk ½ cup heavy cream ¼ cup dry white wine (optional) ½ cup cooked shrimp, chopped ½ cup cooked crab meat, flaked ½ cup cooked lobster meat, chopped ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped 1 tbsp olive oil chopped chives for garnish Instructions: Start by preparing your seafood. In the SENSARTE Nonstick Frying Pan Skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the cooked shrimp, crab meat, and lobster meat. Sauté for a few minutes until they are lightly browned. Remove from heat and set aside. In your SENSARTE Nonstick Sauce Pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion, celery, and carrot. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. Stir in the minced garlic, paprika, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetable mixture and stir well to create a roux. Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly until it turns a light golden brown. Gradually add the fish or seafood stock, whole milk, and heavy cream to the pan. Whisk continuously to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for about 10 minutes, or until the bisque thickens. If using white wine, pour it into the bisque and cook for an additional 2 minutes to allow the alcohol to cook off. Carefully transfer the bisque to a blender and blend until it's smooth. Be cautious with hot liquids in a blender - blend in batches if necessary. Return the bisque to the saucepan. Add the sautéed seafood (shrimp, crab, lobster) to the bisque and cook for an additional 5 minutes to heat the seafood through. Stir in the fresh chopped parsley and let it simmer for another 2 minutes. Adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve the seafood bisque hot, garnished with chopped chives and a sprinkle of paprika if desired. Enjoy!
