Roasted Red Peppers Florentine & Shrimp Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Sauté the Aromatics

   In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

2. 2

   Add Broth and Peppers

   Stir in the roasted red peppers and vegetable or chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes.

3. 3

   Blend the Soup

   Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. If using a regular blender, carefully transfer the soup in batches and blend until smooth.

4. 4

   Add Spinach and Shrimp

   Return the blended soup to the pot and stir in the fresh spinach. Once the spinach wilts, add the shrimp. Cook until the shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 3-5 minutes.

5. 5

   Finish with Cream and Cheese

   Stir in the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Heat through and adjust seasoning as needed.

6. 6

   Serve

   Ladle the soup into bowls and serve hot, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
