Ingredients

4 servings

For the bisque

2 tbsp garlic-infused oil
1 tbsp unsalted butter
6 scallions, green tops only, thinly sliced (about ¾ cup)
2 stalks celery, finely diced
1 medium carrot, finely diced
½ tsp smoked paprika
¼ tsp cayenne pepper
2 tbsp gluten free flour
½ cup dry white wine
3 cups chicken broth
Chef's tip
Use the same amount of low-sodium vegetable broth. The dish will be a little lighter in flavor than with chicken broth.
1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes, drained
1 cup heavy cream
1 lb lump crab meat, picked over for shells
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
salt and pepper, to taste

For serving

2 tbsp scallion greens, thinly sliced (optional)
1 tbsp fresh chives, chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Heat the garlic-infused oil and butter in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium heat until the butter is melted and the mixture shimmers.
2
Add the scallion greens, celery, and carrot and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and the celery is translucent, about 6–8 minutes.
