16 large shrimps, peeled, deveined
1 C. snow peas

Directions:

Bring the broth to a simmer. Add crushed red pepper and shrimp. Simmer for 5 min. Add lemongrass and simmer for another 5 min. Add the rest of the ingredients and simmer a few minutes more. Be careful not to over cook or the vegetables will lose their color and will get limp.
