Provided by Food Network

Categories main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 soup servings or 4 main-cour

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 pound medium shrimp
2 fresh lemongrass stalks
4 fresh or dried kaffir lime leaves, or 1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
6 cups chicken stock
1 tablespoon fish sauce, or salt, to taste
3 tablespoons lime juice, or to taste
1 teaspoon chile paste
1 (15-ounce) can straw mushrooms, or 12 medium fresh mushrooms
3 fresh hot green chiles, for garnish
3 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish

Steps:

Wash the raw shrimp, then peel and devein, saving the peelings. Wash the shrimp again, drain and pat dry. Cover and refrigerate.
Cut each lemongrass stick into 3 (2-inch) pieces, starting from the rounded bottom end; discard the straw-like top. Lightly crush the 6 pieces with a heavy pestle, a mallet, or the blade of a knife.
Combine the lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, the stock, and shrimp peelings in a pan. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer very gently for 20 minutes. Strain this stock and return to the rinsed-out pan.
Add the fish sauce, lime juice, and chile paste. Stir and taste again, adding more fish sauce or lime juice if required.
Drain the straw mushrooms and add them to the seasoned stock. If using fresh mushrooms cut into quarters, drop into lightly salted boiling water, and boil for 1 minute. Drain and add to the seasoned stock. (The soup may be prepared to this stage several hours ahead if necessary and refrigerated.)
Prepare the garnishes shortly before you are ready to serve the soup. Cut the green chilies into very fine rounds, and wash and dry the cilantro leaves.
Just before serving, heat the stock with the mushrooms in it. When it begins to bubble, drop in the peeled shrimp. Cook over a medium heat for about 2 minutes or just until the shrimp turn opaque. Serve the soup immediately in individual bowls, garnished with the green chiles and cilantro leaves.

Tips:

- For the spiciest soup, use a combination of fresh and dried chili peppers. Remove the seeds from the chili peppers before chopping them to reduce the heat level. - If you don't want the soup to be too spicy, start with a small amount of chili peppers and add more to taste. - To make the soup more flavorful, use a variety of vegetables, such as carrots, celery, onions, and bell peppers. - If you don't have fish sauce, you can substitute soy sauce or tamari. - Serve the soup with rice, noodles, or crusty bread. - Garnish the soup with chopped cilantro, green onions, or lime wedges.

Conclusion:

Spicy Killer Shrimp Soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is sure to please everyone at your table. Perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal, it can also be served as an appetizer or main course. With its bold flavors and spicy kick, this soup is sure to become a favorite.
