Ingredients

4 servings

For the lobster

2 live lobster tails (6–8 oz each), or 2 whole cooked lobsters (1–1.25 lb each)

For the shell stock

4 cups seafood stock broth or chicken broth
1 cup water

For the bisque

2 tbsp ghee
1 cup celery (about 3 stalks), finely diced
1 medium carrot, finely diced
3 scallions (green tops only), thinly sliced
3 tbsp tomato paste
1 tsp smoked paprika
Ingredient note
Dried smoked paprika can sometimes contain mold toxins, but the small amount in this recipe—about 1/4 teaspoon per serving—is likely tolerated by many. When possible, use a recently purchased organic spice and store it tightly closed in a cool, dry place. If you prefer to always avoid smoked paprika, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
½ tsp dried thyme
¼ tsp cayenne pepper
Ingredient note
Dried cayenne pepper can sometimes contain mold toxins, but the small amount in this recipe—about a pinch per serving—is likely tolerated by many. When possible, use a recently purchased organic spice and store it tightly closed in a cool, dry place. If you prefer to always avoid cayenne pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
2 tbsp arrowroot starch
1 can (13.5 oz) full-fat coconut milk
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
salt and pepper, to taste
Ingredient note
Dried black pepper can sometimes contain mold toxins, but the small amount in this recipe—about a pinch per serving—is likely tolerated by many. When possible, use a recently purchased organic spice and store it tightly closed in a cool, dry place. If you prefer to always avoid black pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.

For serving

2 tbsp fresh chives, thinly sliced (optional)
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling (optional)

Instructions

1
If using live lobster tails, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the tails and cook for 6–8 minutes, until the shells are bright red and the meat is opaque throughout and reaches 145°F (63°C) on an instant-read thermometer. Transfer to a cutting board and let cool for 5 minutes. If using pre-cooked whole lobsters, skip the boiling step and proceed directly to shell removal.
2
Twist or cut the lobster tails to remove the meat. Reserve all shells and any juices. Roughly chop the lobster meat into bite-sized pieces, cover, and refrigerate until needed.
