Steps:
- Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot over medium heat and melt the butter into it. Then add the shrimp shells, the leeks, celery, carrots, 3 sprigs thyme, the bay leaf, orange zest, and tomato paste. Cook, stirring every now and then, until the shells are red and the vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes.
- Take the pot off the heat and carefully pour in the brandy. Ignite the brandy with a long kitchen match and let burn until the flame subsides. Return the pot to the heat, sprinkle in the flour, give it a stir, and cook for another 2 minutes. Now add water to cover and deglaze, scraping up all the browned bits on the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon. Add the cream and bring to a boil. Immediately turn the heat down to low and gently simmer until the soup is reduced and thickened, 30 to 45 minutes. Strain into a clean pot and season with salt and pepper.
- Chop the shrimp. Return the bisque to a simmer, add the shrimp and cook 2 to 3 minutes just to cook the shrimp through. Give the bisque a final taste for seasoning, pour it into warmed soup bowls and serve garnished with the orange zest and chives.

Add the half-and-half and cook, stirring with a whisk, until thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the pureed shrimp, the stock, tomato paste, salt, and pepper and heat gently until hot but not boiling. Season, to taste, and serve hot. ;
SHRIMP BISQUE
I enjoy both Cajun and Mexican cuisine, and this rich, elegant soup combines the best of both. I serve it with a crispy green salad and glass of white wine for a simple but very special meal.-Karen Harris, Castle Rock, Colorado

Nutrition Facts :
SHRIMP BISQUE (EMERIL'S)
This is a wonderful dish and well worth the time it takes to make. You can certainly make your stock one day and refrigerate it overnight. The next day let your stock come to room temperature and put your Bisque together. I listed cornstarch as an optional ingredient because I like my Bisque to be a little thicker than a thin soup. If it comes out thin just simply mix about 4-5 tbsp cornstarch in cold water and add to the Bisque at the end. Cook until slightly thickened. If you don't care for spicy you may want to start out using only 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper. You can always add more late if you wish. If you add a salad and hot bread you have a wonderful dinner. This will serve 12 as an appetizer and 6 as a main course.
