Thai shrimp and chicken soup

Thai chicken and shrimp soup is a dish that combines the delicate flavor of chicken with the intensity and freshness of seafood and spices typical of Asian cuisine, especially from Thailand. Although traditional chicken soups are consumed in many Latin American countries, this variant with shrimp and a touch of soy sauce and chili reflects the influence of Thai gastronomy in the region.

In countries like Mexico, Colombia, or Argentina, this soup might simply be known as "chicken and seafood soup" or "Thai soup," but the balance between chicken and shrimp along with aromatic ingredients like cilantro, garlic, and spices makes it unique. This recipe represents a cultural fusion that highlights the respect for well-made broths and the freshness of seafood ingredients.

Its origin harks back to the culinary traditions of Southeast Asia, where the use of fresh herbs, spices, and seafood in soups is common to take advantage of their nutritional and medicinal properties. Furthermore, adapting this recipe with ingredients accessible in Latin America gives rise to homemade preparations that celebrate global culinary diversity.
