Delicious low-fat shrimp bisque with flavorful red pepper and tomato.
Ingredients:
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
  • 0.5 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 0.5 pound cooked or raw shrimp, tails removed, cut in pieces
  • 2 cups fat-free half-and-half
  • 1 cup no-salt-added tomato sauce
  • 0.25 teaspoon hot chile sauce, or to taste
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • 0.25 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese
Instructions:
  • Heat olive oil in a saucepan. Saute red pepper and onion on low heat until soft, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 minutes. Add shrimp, half-and-half, tomato sauce, hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in butter.
  • Blend 1/2 of the hot mixture in a high-speed blender for about 10 to 15 seconds until smooth. Serve the bisque in soup bowls.
  • Continue with the rest of the mixture and then generously sprinkle on the Parmesan cheese.
  • Enhance the dish with fresh herbs and extra shrimp as desired.
