Chilled Avocado Cucumber Soup with Shrimp
Prep Time: 25 minutes
Cook Time: 4 minutes
Servings: 2

Ingredients

Soup:

  • 2 large ripe avocados, peeled and pitted
  • ½ cup cucumber, diced
  • 1 cup cold water
  • ½ cup milk
  • 4 tbsp lime juice
  • ½ tsp green habanero sauce
  • 1 large handful chopped mint leaves
  • 3 ice cubes
  • 1 tsp sea salt

Shrimp:

  • 12 large, peeled shrimp
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ tbsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tbsp sweet paprika
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • Sea salt

Instructions

  • Place all of the soup ingredients into your blender or food processor (I used this one). Puree until smooth. If you think the soup is too thick, add a little more cold water. Put soup in an airtight container and place in the fridge until ready to serve.
  • To prepare the shrimp, combine all the ingredients into bowl. Whisk together. Add your shrimp and toss to coat. Let marinate 10-20 minutes.
  • Once the shrimp are marinated, heat a large non-stick pan over high heat. Add shrimp and cook about 2 minutes on each side. Set aside.
  • Divide the soup between 4 bowls. Add shrimp to the top. If desired, cut a cucumber ribbon with a vegetable peeler and place between shrimp.
