I used Better Than Bouillon for my stock.

You can use bone broth or canned chicken

broth as well. Add the broth to the meat

and onion. Heat over medium heat until hot.

Add the shrimp and the pasta to the

soup, mixing until combined. Let sit

for 10 minutes so the noodles absorb

some of the broth.
