This rich, creamy soup will knock you off your feet! Great as part of a large meal, but meaty enough to use as a full meal.

Time 30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 tablespoons butter
1 onion, chopped
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken broth
3 cups half-and-half cream
1 teaspoon salt
1 ½ pounds peeled crawfish tails
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat, and cook and stir the onion until golden, about 8 minutes. Stir in the flour until smooth, and cook and stir the mixture until it turns a pale golden color, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the chicken broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps, then mix in the half-and-half, salt, crawfish tails, Worcestershire sauce, and cayenne pepper.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low, and continue whisking as soup comes to a simmer. Allow the bisque to simmer for about 5 minutes, until slightly thickened. Do not boil.
