Lobster or Crab Bisque image

Rich and delicious seafood bisque! I use chicken broth because it's cheap and easy to find, but if you are so inclined, you could use fresh lobster stock or 3 ounces of Glace de Fruits de Mer Gold reconstituted in 4 cups of hot water.

I used crab instead of lobster and it was still delicious. I think this bisque would be good with any type of seafood.
