Delicious Crappie Recipe

[WHARFRAT]

I got this from the CDC site. If you like lobster bisque, you'll love this.

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter

1 pound crappie meat (You can add more meat for a heavier soup)

4 cans (10 3/4 ounces each ) Campbells® Condensed Cream of Shrimp Soup

4 soup can fulls of half and half - 1 quart + needed (For really rich soup you can sub 2 soup can fulls of cream and 2 soup cans full of 1/2 and 1/2 . *Warning* this adds 500 extra calories, but its amazing)

2 tbsp Old Bay Seasoning

1 tbsp Garlic Powder (or to tasteI like more)

1 tbsp Onion Powder(or to tasteI like more)

1 tbsp Black Pepper(or to tasteI like more)

Optional:

Hot Sauce (I like to add just a bit for a little kick)

In a pan melt the ½ stick of butter and add the crappie meat. Cook crappie meat in butter until flaky and white throughout. Chop crappie meat into small pieces with spatula. In a separate soup pan, add in all other ingredients. Add chopped crappie meat into the soup pan, butter and all. Bring soup to a bubbling simmer, stirring often as the bisque will stick to the soup pan if not stirred. Serve hot with your favorite condimentsoyster crackers, croutons, saltines .etc or as is. Its good both ways.

We used to do a similar recipe, but with clams. I gotta think the crappie would be excellent.
