Step 4

Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 5

Add the raw shrimp to the soup and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and fully cooked through.

Step 6

Season the soup with salt, black pepper, and fresh lime juice. Stir well to adjust the flavors to your liking.

Ladle the soup into a bowl and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.
