Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 6 tbsp butter
  • 1 cup chopped yellow onion (or sweet onion)
  • 1/4 cup cream sherry
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika
  • 4 cups whole milk
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 1 lb of lobster meat, in bite-size pieces (I used pre-cooked)
  • 3 cups of corn (fresh or frozen)
  • 1/4 pound bacon (diced)
  • 2 cups medium Yukon gold potatoes (cut into large chunks (about 2 potatoes))
  • 1 large yellow onion (or sweet onion) chopped
  • 3 celery stalks (diced)
  • 1/2 tbsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
  • 2 tsp chopped fresh chives (or finely chopped green onion)
  • 1/4 cup cream sherry

Instruction

  • To make the soup base, melt the butter in a large pot (soup pot), then add the onions and sauté until soft (but not browned).
  • Then add the sherry and paprika. Mix well and cook for about 1 minute.
  • Add the milk, cream and wine.
  • Then simmer over medium-low heat for about 15 minutes, making sure to stir often.
  • While the soup base is simmering, in a separate pan cook the bacon until brown and crisp. Then remove the bacon from the pan, and set it aside.
  • To the same pan that you cooked the bacon, add the potatoes, onions, celery, corn, salt and pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes.
  • After this time, add the potato/corn mixture to the milk soup base in your stock pot.
  • Add the lobster meat and sherry.
  • Simmer for about 15 more minutes, until the potatoes are tender.
  • Garnish with the chives (or green onion).
  • Enjoy!
