Savory Cajun Spiced Shrimp Soup Recipe

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup of butter
• 1 finely diced small onion
• 1/2 a bunch of green onions, finely chopped
• 3 stalks of celery, finely diced
• 1 small orange bell pepper, chopped into small pieces
• 1 can (10.75 ounces) reduced-sodium cream of mushroom soup
• 1 can (10.75 ounces) reduced-sodium cream of celery soup
• 10 and 3/4 fluid ounces of water
• 1 can (14.75 ounces) creamed corn
• 1 package (10 ounces) of frozen corn kernels
• 2 pounds of medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1 pint of half-and-half cream
• 1/2 cup of freshly chopped parsley
• 1/2 teaspoon of liquid shrimp and crab boil seasoning
• 1/4 teaspoon of Creole seasoning (adjust to your liking)
• Salt and black pepper, to taste

Step 1

Begin by melting butter in a spacious pot over medium heat until it sizzles and releases its rich aroma. Incorporate a medley of onions - both regular and green, along with crunchy celery and vibrant bell pepper. Cook this fragrant mixture until it softens, filling your kitchen with delicious scents.

Step 2

Next, introduce a velvety combination of cream of mushroom soup, creamy celery soup, a can of water, creamy corn, and a burst of frozen corn into the pot. Let it simmer gently for about 20 minutes, giving it an occasional stir until it is thoroughly warmed and blended.

Step 3

Now, gently fold in succulent shrimp, watching as they transform to a lovely opaque hue. Add a touch of half and half and a sprinkle of fresh parsley to elevate the flavors. Lower the heat to a gentle simmer and continue to stir for another 15 minutes, allowing the ingredients to meld beautifully.

Step 4

To intensify the taste, introduce a dash of liquid shrimp and crab boil seasoning along with a hint of Creole seasoning. Season the dish with a pinch of salt and pepper to your liking, enhancing the flavors further.
