This creamy soup takes full advantage of some frozen helpers: fully-cooked, peeled and deveined shrimp, imitation crab meat and frozen corn kernels.
- cooking spray
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 6 c. chicken broth
- 1 c. frozen corn kernels
- 3 c. mixed seafood (I suggest a half and half combination of cooked, peeled and deveined shrimp and chopped imitation crab meat)
- 1 c. heavy cream
- salt and pepper to taste
In a large stockpot, heat cooking spray over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and sauté until tender, but not browned -- about 5 minutes. Add chicken broth, corn kernels and seafood. Cook until corn and seafood are heated through -- about 10 minutes. Add cream and seasonings to taste. Allow to cook an additional 5 minutes. Serve immediately.
