Fire-Roasted Tomato, Mushroom and Shrimp Bisque image

Provided by Robert Irvine : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 plum tomatoes, halved and seeds removed
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil, divided
1 quart chicken stock
1/2 pound (16/20-size) shrimp, deveined, divided
2 tablespoons butter
1 white onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, lightly crushed with the side of a knife blade, and quartered
1 cup white mushrooms, cleaned, trimmed and sliced (about 3 ounces)
1 cup white rice
1 tablespoon all-purpose seasoning (recommended: Old Bay)
2 cups heavy cream
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro leaves
1 tablespoon minced fresh mint leaves
2 or 3 slices French bread or garlic bread, toasted and cut into croutons

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place tomatoes cut-side down on a baking sheet lined with foil for easy cleanup and brush skin with 1 tablespoon of the grapeseed oil, reserving the rest of the oil. Roast tomatoes until charred, about 15 minutes, remove from oven and place in plastic bags to sweat. This will help make it easier to remove the skin.
  • Heat chicken stock in a medium saucepot over medium heat. Peel shrimp and add shells to the pot, reserving the shrimp. Bring the pot of stock and shells to a boil, skimming any impurities which rise to the surface.
  • In a large stockpot, heat the remaining grapeseed oil over medium heat and melt the butter in it, and saute onions and garlic until onions turn translucent. Add the mushrooms and cook until they begin to soften and give up their juices. Strain the chicken stock into the stockpot with the onions and mushrooms and discard the shrimp shells. Remove skin from the roasted tomatoes and add them to the pot. Add the white rice and all-purpose seasoning, bring to a gentle boil, reduce heat to low, cover and let simmer 20 minutes.
  • Chop most of the shrimp, small dice, reserving about 8 whole shrimp. Stir chopped shrimp into pot and add whole shrimp last, without stirring in the whole shrimp. Cover pot and let cook for 5 more minutes. Remove from heat and scoop out whole shrimp and transfer to a utility plate and cover to keep warm. Stir heavy cream into pot and puree with an immersion blender and season with salt and pepper. Spoon into soup bowls and garnish with whole shrimp topped with cilantro and mint. Serve with croutons.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of mushrooms for a more flavorful bisque. Some good options include cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of seafood. Shrimp is a classic choice, but you could also try crab, lobster, or scallops.
  • Be sure to cook the seafood thoroughly. Overcooked seafood is tough and chewy, so cook it just until it is opaque and firm.
  • Add a splash of dry white wine or cognac to the bisque for extra flavor.
  • Serve the bisque with a garnish of fresh herbs, such as parsley, chives, or dill.

Conclusion:

Mushroom shrimp bisque is a delicious and elegant soup that is perfect for a special occasion. It is also surprisingly easy to make. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that will impress your friends and family.
