Carol's Notes:

This recipe is from allrecipes, by Tara Edwards. I was looking for a bique that tasted like the one you get in the Seafood restuarants locally and this one is as close as I could get.

 

Directions

1
Melt the butter in a large pan over medium heat.

Stir in the flour, salt, pepper and celery salt until well blended
2
Grandually stir in the milk so that no lumps form and then stir in the chicken stock.

Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until soup begins to thicken.
3
Add the onions and lobster, season with paprika.

Cook and stir for about 10 minutes.
Stir in the cream , heat through and serve.

Just made this tonight... It was delicious!! I used lobster that was from a dish we made for Christmas, which was terrible. Hubby salvaged all the lobster from the dish and I used it to made this soup... Yum! No wasted Lobster! lol

Nice to hear Lauren ! Thanks for letting me know that ! I'll bet that was a treat, our local Grocery store has a sale for $4.99 @ pound for lobster, I was shocked !

"Better Than Boullion" makes a loster base and a clam base. The lobster base is great instead of chicken stock. Your recipe is wonderful and I kept everything else the same :)
