👨‍🍳 Instructions

Combine green onion, butter, and 1/4 teaspoon seafood seasoning in a saucepan over medium heat.

Cook until onion is slightly softened, 2 minutes.

Stir tomato soup into saucepan; increase heat to medium and bring to a simmer.

Stir in cayenne pepper and reduce heat to medium-low.

Stir in crabmeat; cook, stirring occasionally, until crab is cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes.

Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Remove from heat.

Whisk cream with a pinch of seafood seasoning until light and frothy, about 30 seconds.

Ladle bisque into bowls and stir in a teaspoon of frothy cream.
