  2. Once the soup has chilled, portion into desired bowls and then preheat a large fry pan on medium heat.
  3. Once the pan is hot, add 1 tablespoon olive oil and then the shrimp. Season with salt, pepper and paprika.
  4. After the shrimpy’s are almost cooked, add the garlic, lemon zest and optionally 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.
  5. Now place the shrimp into the bowls with the soup, serve and enjoy!

Variations

You can skip the shrimp if you want and serve the soup as is or you can take the shrimp to another level and wrap it with a thin strip of prosciutto ham before frying…your choice!
