Why This Dish Is Worth Trying
This soup is refreshing and creamy without being heavy. The combination of avocado and corn creates a unique flavor that is both sweet and smooth. It’s perfect for hot days when you want something cool and satisfying.
Directions
Tos the avocado, onions, garlic, and chicken broth into a food processor or blender. Give it a few quick pulses until everything’s nicely blended but still a bit textured. Pour the mixture into a bowl, then stir in the yogurt, half-and-half, lemon juice, sriracha, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Fold in the corn kernels gently so they stay whole. Cover the bowl and pop it in the fridge for at least a couple of hours to let the flavors chill and come together. When you’re ready to serve, ladle the soup into bowls and top each one with a shrimp for a little extra touch.
