Lobster Bisque

Make it pretty: Dollops of sour cream, snips of green onion tops and a drizzle of cocktail sauce.

This is the easiest dinner to cook for a girl's night! Soup, wine and crusty artisan bread for dipping.

Speaking of dipping... finish the meal with a gigantic bowl of strawberries and packaged chocolate fondue.

Lobster Bisque Recipe
Steam: As much lobster as you can afford. I used about 1 pound.
Simmer: 1 cup chicken broth and 1/4 cup finely diced yellow onion.
In separate pan:
Melt 2 tbsp. butter. Stir in 2 tbsp flour.
Add 2 cups milk, bring to boil (I use half and half which is why it tastes so yummy. You could go completely nuts and use heavy cream!)

Stir In: Chicken broth, onion, plus:

• 1/2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
• 4 tbsp. Cocktail Sauce
• Salt and pepper, to taste

* This decadent mess can simmer or crockpot for however long you want. I usually add the lobster about 20 minutes before serving so it has a fresher flavor.
