Ingredients

  • 250 g frozen peeled shrimp
  • 1 pc red bell pepper
  • 1 pc yellow onion
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon ground smoked paprika
  • 1 can red beans (400 g)
  • 100 g sour cream
  • 1 pc ripe avocado
  • 100 g cherry tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon pickled jalapeño peppers
  • 1 handful fresh cilantro
  • 1 pinch salt and pepper

Instructions

  • 1
    Core the bell pepper and cut it into small pieces. Peel and finely chop the onion, slice the garlic thinly.
  • 2
    Heat oil in a pot. Add the chopped bell pepper and sauté for a few minutes, stirring occasionally. Then add the onion and let it become translucent.
  • 3
    Add shrimp (or meat, depending on the variation) to the prepared vegetables and sauté briefly. Once the shrimp are opaque, add the garlic slices and fry together for another minute.
  • 4
    Stir in tomato paste and ground smoked paprika, sauté for a minute, stirring constantly. Then pour in water or broth, add beans, and simmer briefly until the soup reaches the desired consistency.

    Preheat the oven to 200 °C. If preparing the nachos variation, spread tortilla chips on a baking sheet, top with the mixture, and sprinkle with grated cheese. Bake in the oven for about 10 minutes.
  • 6
    Garnish the finished soup or baked nachos with sour cream, avocado slices, cherry tomatoes, jalapeños, and fresh cilantro. Serve with your favorite salsa.

Tip: For an especially delicate flavor, you can finish the sauce with a drop of lemon juice. Homemade spaetzle or wide noodles, which perfectly soak up the creamy sauce, are an excellent side dish.
