Crab Bisque

By: The Essential Keto Instant Pot Cookbook by Casey Thaler

Crab bisque—is there anything more delicious (and nutritious) for dinner? I frequently pair this with fresh asparagus, or some steamed broccoli. Try garnishing the bisque with a pinch of tarragon or paprika, for even more taste.

Ingredients

4 tablespoons grass-fed butter
3 cups grass-fed bone broth
8 oz full-fat cream cheese
2 stalks celery
1 pound frozen crab meat
1 tsp Old Bay seasoning
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 cup bell peppers
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
4 oz onion
14 oz sugar-free or low-sugar crushed tomatoes

Instructions

Set the Instant Pot to Sauté. Add the butter, melting it gently.
Pour in the bone broth, then mix in the cream cheese, celery, crab, Old Bay, cayenne pepper, black pepper, salt, bell peppers, whipping cream, onion, and tomatoes. Close the lid, set the pressure release to Sealing, and select Manual/Pressure Cook. Set the Instant Pot to 3 minutes on low pressure and let cook.
When cooking is complete, perform a quick release by carefully switching the pressure valve to Venting. For a smoother soup, briefly use an immersion blender, until desired consistency is reached.
Remove the bisque, serve, and enjoy!
