Chicken and shrimp soup
Description
Hearty and aromatic soup. I should mention right away that it's best to prepare this soup in a wok. If you don't have one, choose a pot with a thick bottom. For preparing chicken and shrimp soup, most ingredients should be ready in advance: broth, cooked chicken (baked in the oven or pan-fried), and boiled rice. The shrimp can be frozen or cooked and frozen. The soup is ready to serve.
