Ingredients:

  1. 2 teaspoons - to 3 teaspoons olive oil
  2. 1/4 cups - diced yellow onion
  3. 2 cloves - garlic minced
  4. 2 - shallots minced
  5. 2 - medium carrots diced
  6. 3 stalks - celery diced
  7. 1 - medium potato peeled, diced
  8. 1 cans - 14.5 oz. diced tomatoes
  9. 24 ounces - low-sodium vegetable broth
  10. 1 tablespoons - Old Bay seasoning
  11. 1 teaspoons - dried dill
  12. 1/4 teaspoons - paprika
  13. 12 ounces - frozen lobster meat reserve 1/2 cup for garnish
  14. 1/2 cups - half and half OR fat-free half-and-half for creamier bisque, use more
  15. - salt to taste
  16. - fresh chopped parsley and fresh ground black pepper for garnish, if desired

Directions:

Turn on the Instant Pot and turn to sauté setting. Add olive oil, onion, garlic, shallots, carrots, celery and potatoes to pot; sauté, uncovered, until vegetables are tender - about 5 or 6 minutes.

Add canned diced tomatoes with their juice to the pot, and stir to combine. Add broth, Old Bay, dried drill, paprika and frozen lobster to pot, stirring to mix.

Cover pot, turn steam release handle on lid to venting, set pot to manual function and cook on high for 4 minutes. Allow pressure to release naturally (the time for natural release will vary depending on the particular pressure cooker).

Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the hot soup in the Instant Pot to the desired consistency, chunky or smooth. Optional: Use a stand blender for this process - being careful to hold lid on top of blender to prevent heat from popping it off and making a mess.

Gradually add in half-and-half. If desired, add salt to taste. Garnish with parsley and pepper, if desired.

Serve with a mixed greens salad and dinner rolls, if you like.
