Shrimp Soup (6 servings)

Shrimp Soup Ingredient

  • 1 pound medium shrimp

  • 2 medium avocados

  • 1 large lemon

  • 1 finely chopped medium yellow onion

  • 2 large tomatoes, diced

  • 1 large cucumber, peeled, seeded, and diced

  • 1⁄2 cup finely chopped cilantro

  • 1⁄2 pound fresh crab, flaked

  • 32-ounce jar clamato juice, chilled

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • Lemon wedges for garnish

Preparation Method For Shrimp Soup

1 Peel and devein the shrimp and rinse well.

2 Bring about 2 quarts of water to a boil. Add the shrimp and cook for 1 minute. Drain the shrimp in a colander and run cold water over them. Set aside to cool further.

3 Dice the avocados and squeeze the juice of an entire lemon over them to prevent them from turning dark.

4 In a very large salad bowl, combine the shrimp, avocados, onion, tomatoes, cucumber, cilantro, and crab.

5 Add the clamato juice, mixing all the ingredients well. Salt and pepper to taste.

6 Refrigerate the soup for at least 3 hours before serving to allow flavors to mingle. This is better the longer it chills. If you can make it about 6 hours ahead of time, it’s even more scrumptious!

7 Serve in tall, clear, round-bottomed glasses. Garnish with a lemon wedge tucked on the side of the glass and lightly sprinkle the top of each serving with cilantro if desired.
