Ingredients

Instructions

Step one

Heat olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook for about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook another 1 minute. Add the Tomato Paste and Old Bay seasoning and cook 2-3 minutes.

Step two

Add 1/3 cup of the sherry and simmer until liquid is reduced by about half. Add the Crushed Tomatoes, chicken broth, sugar, salt and pepper.

Step three

Bring to a strong simmer and then reduce heat. Cook at a low simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat and using an immersion blender or regular blender, carefully blend until smooth. Stir in cream and reserved 1/3 cup sherry.  Return to pot and add the chopped shrimp. Over low heat cook 2-3 minutes until shrimp are cooked.
