Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons butter
1 small sweet onion, chopped minced
2 celery ribs, chopped, include the leaves
1 carrot, pared and chopped
1 large leek, thinly sliced (white and light green parts)
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon crushed tarragon
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1 dash cayenne pepper, more, if desired

Steps:

  • Remove bay leaf and serve.

This soup is so easy to make and it's always a hit with my family. I love that I can use frozen scallops, so it's a great recipe to have on hand for busy weeknights.

I'm not a big fan of seafood, but I really enjoyed this soup! The scallops were tender and the leeks added a nice subtle flavor.

This soup is very rich and creamy. If you're looking for a lighter soup, you can substitute milk for the cream.

I added a cup of white wine to the soup and it really enhanced the flavor. I highly recommend adding wine to this recipe.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover scallops. I always have a few scallops left over after a seafood dinner, and this soup is a great way to use them up.

I'm allergic to scallops, so I used shrimp instead. The soup was still very good, but I think it would have been even better with scallops.

I'm not a fan of leeks, so I omitted them from the recipe. The soup was still very good, but I think it would have been even better with the leeks.

I'm a vegetarian, so I substituted the scallops with tofu. It turned out great! The tofu absorbed all the flavors of the broth and the soup was very satisfying.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The soup was bland and the scallops were overcooked.

This soup was a bit too salty for my taste, but otherwise it was very good. I'll try it again with less salt next time.
