I enjoy both Cajun and Mexican cuisines, and this rich, elegant soup combines the best of both. I serve it with a crispy green salad and a glass of white wine for a simple but very special meal. -Karen Harris, Littleton, Colorado

I'm not usually a fan of bisques, but this one changed my mind. The shrimp and corn added a nice sweetness, while the chipotle peppers gave it a bit of a kick. I'll definitely be making this again.
