Crawfish Bisque
Randy Brown
"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."

Ready In
- 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.

It's okay. Seafood stock should be used.

Excellent - made as written and added an extra half pound of crawfish. Smooth, flavorful and you can control the heat. A definite keeper.

This was nice and creamy. Had only bought 16 oz of cream and just used that cuz I didn't have anymore. Came out ok. Also added celery by accident, thought it called for it. And no crawfish at my...
