Notes

  • Chicken Broth: If Whole30/Paleo double check your chicken broth ingredients
  • Shrimp: You can either leave the tails on or take them off beforehand. If you leave them on it does add to the flavor a lot, but it can be a pain to take them off later on. Do whatever works best for you!
  • Chicken Thighs – you can also sub boneless chicken thighs for the chicken breasts
  • Frozen Shrimp: Frozen shrimp works just fine, I would just thaw before use.
