You can purchase the RC Seafood Bisque on-line from Redi-Base. They have a line of mixes intended for commercial restaurant use…you will have to break down their recipes to figure out how much of the redi-base mix you will need, which is what I did with this recipe.
I was enticed to seek out a recipe for my favorite dish at a local cajun restaurant called simply Sauted Shrimp. The sauce was delicious…I have a pretty good “taster” and decided the sauce was not unlike a lobster bisque. I kept searching for what I thought would be a similar recipe and found this.

You might need to buy:
  • milk
  • butter
  • dry sherry
  • cajun/creole seasoning
  • paprika
  • heavy cream
  • peeled and deveined shrimp
  • butter or oil to sear shrimp
