Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons butter
  • 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon celery salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 4 cups half-and-half
  • 1 ½ cups lobster stock
  • 3 cups cooked lobster meat, shredded
  • 3 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 3 tablespoons minced onion
  • 3 tablespoons minced celery
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay)
  • 1 cup cream

Directions

Step 1
Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Stir flour, sea salt, celery salt, and black pepper into the butter. Gradually stir half-and-half into the mixture, taking care that no lumps form. Add lobster stock; stir. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring constantly, until the soup begins to thicken, about 15 minutes.

Step 2
Stir lobster, tomato paste, onion, and celery into the soup; season with paprika, thyme, and seafood seasoning. Continue cooking the soup to heat the onion and celery, about 10 minutes. Add cream; stir. Cook until hot, about 5 minutes.
