Lobster Bisque With Anguillan Rum

Ingredients

  • 2 lobster tails, shells removed and chopped
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 cup Anguillan rum
  • 4 cups seafood stock
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped lobster tails and cook until they turn pink, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic. Cook for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
  3. Pour in the Anguillan rum and let it simmer for 2 minutes to cook off the alcohol.
  4. Stir in the tomato paste and paprika, then pour in the seafood stock. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes.
  5. Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup to a blender in batches and blend until smooth.
  6. Return the soup to the pot and stir in the heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Simmer the bisque for an additional 10 minutes, then serve hot.
