Instructions

Step 1

Place the red bell pepper flats skin up on a pan. Broil on low until the skins have blackened. Once this happens, remove and either put in seal-able container or paper bag. Let them to steam for about 10 to 15 minutes.

Step 2

While Peppers are roasting, peel and cube the potatoes.

Step 3

When skins have loosened, peel off skin and throw away. Chop the peeled, roasted peppers, and place into a large pot along with the chicken broth and the cubed potato. Bring to a boil, and then add the smoked paprika, half-and-half, salt, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and basil. Return to a boil, then reduce heat to medium low and simmer for 45 minutes

Step 4

When the potatoes have softened, puree the soup with a immersion blender until potatoes and peppers are creamy. Once pureed, stir in the crab. Heat over medium low heat to warm through, about 5 minutes..
