Ingredients

• 2 pieces Lobster tails
• 4 tablespoons Butter
• 1 large piece, diced Celery stalk
• 1 small, diced Carrot
• 1 small, diced Shallot
• 2 cloves, minced Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 0.25 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
• 0.5 cup Dry white wine
• 3 cups Seafood or chicken broth
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 0 to taste Salt
• 0 to taste Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon, chopped Fresh parsley
• 0.5 teaspoon Xanthan gum

Directions

Step 1

Start by steaming the lobster tails until they turn bright red and are fully cooked, about 8-10 minutes. Once cooled, remove the meat from the shells, dice it, and set aside. Keep the lobster shells.

Step 2

In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Sauté the celery, carrot, shallot, and garlic for about 5 minutes, until softened.

Step 3

Add the lobster shells to the pot. Stir in the tomato paste and cayenne pepper, cooking for an additional 2 minutes to toast the tomato paste.

Step 4

Pour in the white wine, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the pot. Allow the liquid to reduce by half.

Step 5

Add the seafood or chicken broth, bring to a simmer, and cook for 20 minutes to infuse the flavors.

Step 6

Strain the broth through a fine sieve into another pot, discarding the solids.

Step 7

Return the strained broth to low heat. Whisk in the xanthan gum to thicken the broth slightly.

Step 8

Stir in the heavy cream and diced lobster meat, allowing the bisque to heat through gently without boiling.

Step 9

Season the bisque with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley.
