2. Add the potatoes and flour:
Pop in the diced potato and let it cook for a minute. Sprinkle in that tablespoon of flour and give it a stir—it’s going to help thicken things up and give the soup that velvety texture we’re after.
3. Pour in the liquids:
Now, add your broth (either veggie or chicken, totally your call). Let it simmer for about 10–15 minutes until the potatoes are nice and soft. By now, your kitchen will be smelling like a seafood restaurant, and you’ll probably be hungry.
4. Seafood time!
Toss in your seafood, and stir it around gently. Let it cook for about 5–7 minutes—don’t overdo it, because we don’t want rubbery shrimp, right? Just enough for everything to cook through.
5. Make it creamy:
Here’s the magic part—pour in the heavy cream! Stir it in, let it simmer for a couple more minutes, and voilà! A big, creamy bowl of seafood heaven. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
6. Garnish and enjoy:
Spoon your soup into bowls, sprinkle some fresh herbs on top, and serve with a wedge of lemon. Squeeze that lemon over the soup for a zesty pop that just makes the whole thing.
