Sopa De Camaron (Shrimp Soup) image

This delicious recipe uses all of the shrimp. Be sure to buy un-peeled shrimp. You start by making a sofrito and end with a broth that is incredible in its depth of flavor. Let your food processor do the mincing. Where you see shrimp soup listed in the ingredients know that I use cubes of Knorr Sopa de Camaron that are about a Tbsp. For some reason the Recipe Tsar won't let me use the term. Feel free to add more of the Sriracha if you like. I do. ¡¡¡¡¡Buen Provecho!!!!!

  • In a separate pan heat 3 Tbsp of olive oil and saute the shrimp shells until pink. Add the Knorr cubes of Sopa de Camaron and 2 qts of water. Cook vigorously adding water as needed. Taste for salt as the Knorr product has a considerable amount of it. If you need more flavor add additional cubes of Knorr. Strain to remove the shells. Allow both mixtures to cool somewhat and adding equal portions of mixture to a blender blend until smooth. In a large pot heat 1 Tbsp of olive oil and saute the tomato paste briefly then add the blended soup and cook on high heat for 10 minutes. Add the peeled and deveined shrimp and the Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce, turn off the burner and put a lid on the pot. Leave for 10 minutes. Rewarm to serve, but do not bring to a boil as it will toughen the shrimp.

This soup is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids love the corn and potatoes in this soup.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this soup without the shrimp. It was still very flavorful and satisfying.

I'm allergic to shrimp, so I made this soup with chicken instead. It was still very good!

This soup is too spicy for my taste. I think I'll try making it again with less chili powder.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out bland. I think I may have added too much water.

This soup is amazing! I've made it several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The broth is so rich and flavorful, and the shrimp are cooked perfectly. I love serving this soup with a side of crusty bread for dipping.
