Step 1

Prep shrimp and set aside. You can buy them pre-prepped or thaw and peel them yourself. Recipe creator suggests using smaller shrimp so there is shrimp in every bite.

Step 2

Finely dice onion and jalapeño, removing the stem and seeds from the jalapeño. If an extra spicy soup is desired, feel free to add some of the seeds back in.

Step 3

Heat a large pot with 1-2 tsp of oil and sauté onion and pepper until tender, adding the minced garlic towards the end, and sauté until fragrant.

Step 4

Add broth, tomato sauce, salsa, and spices to the pot and stir.

Step 5

Bring to a rolling boil, add shrimp, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for 3-4 minutes for larger shrimp and 1-2 minutes for smaller shrimp, or until shrimp are curled and opaque. Times will vary based on shrimp size, adjust accordingly.

Step 6

Add juice of half a lime and slice the remainder for serving.

Step 7

Stir in cilantro to taste and serve with desired toppings
