Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 slices bacon, chopped
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 onion, chopped
1 teaspoon tomato paste
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
12 ounces medium shrimp, peeled, deveined and tails removed
