  2. Add 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth, 1/4 cup water, and 2 cloves minced garlic, stirring to combine.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  4. Add 1 cup thawed frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, etc.) and return to a simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Taste and season with salt and pepper to taste. Consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a kick!
  6. Add 1 pound thawed cooked shrimp, stir gently, and cook for 1-2 minutes, or just until heated through. Do not overcook!
