Cooking Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a pot over medium heat. This will create a warm base for the flavors to develop fully, taking about 2 minutes.
  • Sauté onion and garlic until soft. Stir frequently, allowing them to release their rich, aromatic scents for approximately 3-4 minutes.
  • Add corn and cook for 5 minutes. The corn should begin to brighten and sweeten, blending perfectly with the sautéed onion and garlic.
  • Pour in vegetable broth and bring to a boil. This creates a flavorful foundation for your bisque, so keep an eye on it as it heats.
  • Incorporate shrimp and cook until they turn pink. This usually takes about 3-5 minutes, ensuring they’re tender and juicy.
  • Stir in heavy cream, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well and let the creamy bisque envelop all the delicious ingredients together.
  • Simmer for 10 minutes. Allow the flavors to meld beautifully while the bisque thickens slightly, creating a luscious consistency.
  • Garnish with parsley before serving. This brightens your bisque visually and adds a fresh flavor, making it even more inviting.

Notes

For serving, enjoy with crusty bread to soak up every delicious drop!
