Number of Servings:
Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons - butter
- 1/4 cups - fresh mushrooms chopped
- 2 tablespoons - onion chopped
- 2 tablespoons - celery chopped
- 2 tablespoons - carrot chopped
- 2 tablespoons - flour
- 1 cans - chicken broth 14.5 ounces
- 1 pinchs - cayenne pepper
- 1 1/2 cups - half-and-half
- 1/2 cups - dry white wine
- 1/2 pounds - lump lobster meat cooked
Directions:
1.Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the mushrooms, onion, celery, and carrot. Cook and stir until tender, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle flour over mixture and stir until combined.
2. Gradually stir in the chicken broth, stirring well to allow mixture to thicken, and season with cayenne pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
2. Add 1/4 cup of the lobster meat; and use a stick blender to blend the ingredients in the pan until mixture is smooth (or very carefully ladle 1-2 cups of the vegetable and broth mixture into the container of a blender; cover and hold lid down tightly with a towel to prevent heat from pushing off the lid, and process until smooth; return to the saucepan).
3. Stir in the half-and-half, white wine and remaining lobster meat. Cook over low heat, stirring frequently until thickened, about 30 minutes. (If you desire additional thickening, stir 1 teaspoon of cornstarch with 2 teaspoons cold water and add to the soup during the last 5 minutes of cooking.)
