[@VideoHawkeye]

Rice cooked or uncooked ?

[@mariscookingpr]

Uncooked! It cooks in the soup. 😊

[@shay7065]

🙏🏽❤️

[@Geminidreamweaver]

I'm trying to make some however doesn't the shrimp get hard if you cook it too much?

[@mariscookingpr]

Not for me, but you can try adding the shrimp during the last 5 minutes of cooking.

[@venussuki]

Can I boil the onions and garlic in a seafood stock for the broth?

[@mariscookingpr]

Yes! That’d be a great idea, actually. 🙌🏽

[@ArabellaPottery]

it takes about 5 minutes for shrimp to cook. Put the shrimp in 5 minutes before the soup is done. It will be so much more tender.

[@mariscookingpr]

That’s a great tip

[@CT-dk1ci]

How many minutes did you cook the shrimp. I made a soup (not your recipe) and the shrimp was a little hard). Don’t want to make same mistake when I try your recipe. Thanks

[@lakelife5467]

Don't wait until your shrimp gets cooked for too long (pinkish), maybe 2 to 3mins depends on the quantity. If you wait for the shrimp to be completely cooked, when you continue to cook the rest of the meal, for an additional 30mins the shrimp will be hardened. The shrimp harden when is overly cooked. It becomes chewy.

[@mariscookingpr]

I don’t remember the exact time, but not for long! You can try adding the shrimp at the very end and cook them for about 5-8 minutes or until they are fully cooked through.

[@MsCarolDee26]

How much liquid
