Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14.5 oz canned diced tomatoes
- 10 oz canned minced clams with juice
- 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 0.5 cups heavy cream
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp paprika
- 0.5 tsp dried thyme
- 2 tbsp butter
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp ground black pepper
- to taste optional: hot sauce
- for garnish optional: fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, and dried thyme, and sauté in the butter for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the canned diced tomatoes (with their juice), chicken or vegetable broth, and the canned minced clams (with their juice) to the pan. Stir well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer gently for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Using an immersion blender or a regular blender, carefully puree the soup until smooth. If using a regular blender, blend in batches and take care to avoid splashes.
Return the soup to low heat. Stir in the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste and add a dash of hot sauce if desired.
Allow the soup to heat through for another 2-3 minutes. Do not boil after adding the cream as it can curdle.
Ladle the bisque into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot with crusty bread or crackers.
