This recipe from Gourmet Magazine is an example of what one can expect to be served at a Spanish tapas bar.

The subtle sweetness of roasted red pepper pairs perfectly with succulent grilled shrimp in this cozy 10-minute soup. Enjoy with a side of crispy garlic toast!
I promise you that these are THE best, most perfectly seasoned shrimp you will ever eat. My husband doesn't normally care for shrimp, but he raves over these! —Jennifer Fulk, Moreno Valley, California
