Shrimp And Black Bean Soup Recipes

BLACK BEANS WITH SHRIMP

Steps:

• Heat oil in large heavy skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add onion, garlic, and jalapeno; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in tomatoes, the water, vinegar, cumin, cayenne, oregano, salt, and pepper.

BLACK BEAN SOUP WITH LIME SHRIMP

Steps:

• Sweat the onions and half of the garlic in two tablespoons of the olive oil. Toss in the Cumin, Chile Powder, and Salt and Pepper. Cook for about three minutes on medium-high heat.
• Peel, devein, and rinse the shrimp. Zest and juice the limes into a bowl and add the rest of the olive oil and garlic. Add the red pepper flakes to the bowl. Toss the shrimp in and allow to marinade.
• Add the black beans to the onion mixture and mash about half of them. Add the tomatoes, Tobasco, veggie broth, and half and half. Stir until well mixed. Allow to come to a bubble and then lower the heat to simmer. Let the soup simmer for about 12 minutes.
• In the mean time, cook the shrimp on both sides in a pan (no oil or butter) about two to three minutes a side. After you flip the shrimp, pour in the lime juice mixture to the pan to help "steam" the shrimp. You be the judge on when they're fully cooked.
• Ladle out the soup into a bowl and add five shrimp to the bowl. You can add more salt or pepper to taste.

HEALTHY BLACK BEAN SOUP WITH SHRIMP

Steps:

• In a large soup pot, warm oil to medium heat. Add Onion and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add Bell pepper and cook for another 2 minutes. Add Garlic and 2 tomatoes, cook for 1-2 additional minutes. Season with salt & pepper.
• Add Chipotle Pepper, oregano, chili powder, and cumin (Note my measurements on the spices are estimates, use as much of the flavors as you like).
• Add 2 cans of the beans and the chicken stock. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer for about 15 minutes uncovered.
• Using a hand-held blender, blend all ingredients while cooking in the pot. I like to make it fairly smooth, but some chunks are OK.
• Taste for seasoning -- add additional if appropriate for your taste.
• Add remaining beans and tomatoes. Simmer for another 10-20 minutes.
• Add shrimp and cook for about 5-6 minutes, or until shrimp is pink and cooked through. Remove from heat. Add 1/2 cup fresh cilantro.
