Shrimp-Coconut Soup

Shrimp-Coconut Soup 

This delectable seafood soup, infused with Asian flavors, is the best way to keep warm on a cold night. Best of all, this soup can be made with all Trader Joe's ingredients. How cool is that?

Serves : 4

• ½ cup Trader Joe's Thai red curry sauce
• ½ cup water
• 1- 2 fresh green chili such as Jalapeño or Serrano, cut length wise into two(optional)
• ½ pound medium raw shrimp, shelled and divined
• 1 14 oz can light coconut milk
• 1 teaspoon lime juice
• Cilantro for garnishing

1. In a medium sauce pan, simmer red curry sauce, water and chili(if you are using) over medium heat for 5 minutes.
2. To the simmering sauce add shrimp and cook until shrimp turns pink. Add coconut milk and simmer for 3-5 minutes. 
3. Just before serving stir in lemon juice. Transfer soup to soup bowls and garnish with cilantro and serve.

*Cook’s note: 

• Green chilies are added for flavor only. They are not meant to be eaten.
• If you have sensitive skin, it is important to use kitchen gloves while handling chilies of any kind.
