- 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1/2 head cauliflower, chopped
- 4 medium potatoes, chopped
- 4 cups warm water
- 2 teaspoons salt, plus more, to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, plus more, to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined

Directions
Step 1 -In a large pan over medium heat, add 1/2 cup of the olive oil.

Step 5 -Cover the pan and cook the soup until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15 minutes.
Step 6 -While the soup is cooking, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the remaining olive oil, the butter, the shrimp, the garlic, the extra salt, the extra black pepper, and 3 tablespoons of the parsley and sauté until the shrimp reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 7 -Transfer the cooked shrimp to a large plate and cover to keep them warm.
Step 8 -Transfer the pan to a wire rack. Carefully use an immersion blender to purée the soup until it is smooth.
Step 9 -Ladle the soup into bowls and evenly top with the shrimp.
