1 large onion, chopped
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 tablespoon cooking oil
4 1/2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth

Thaw shrimp, if frozen. Prepare tortilla crisps. Set aside.

    Lovely soup, I left the cumin out as I don't like it, and it came out beautifully! It is quick and easy to make, everyone loved it.
