This is delicious! We are treated to it once a year. It's thick, buttery and has a little bit of a kick to it! This recipe comes from my cousin Nathan Jacobsen. He has made this bisque for us 2 or 3 years in a row now around Thanksgiving! Thank you for sharing your recipe Nathan!
2 lbs. chopped craw fish
1 cup chopped yellow onion
4 sticks butter
2 cups flour
4 cups chicken broth
1 bunch finely chopped green onion
8 cups half & half
4 tsp. garlic powder
4 tsp. onion powder
2-4 tsp. cayenne pepper
In a stock pot over medium high heat saute the chopped yellow onion in all the butter till soft. Stir in flour, keep stirring for 2 mins. so that all the flour and butter are mixed well together. Stir in broth slowly. Add a little at a time to the flour butter mixture so that it doesn't become lumpy. Stir and let it come together for 5 mins. Add in chopped craw fish and green onion. Stir and let it come together for 5 mins. Stir in half & half, 5 mins. Stir in seasonings. Cook all together for 20 mins., stir occasionally. Remove from heat. Let it stand for 5 mins and then serve.
