Step 1
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the 0.5 lb shrimp and cook until pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove shrimp and set aside.
Step 2
In the same pot, add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil. Pour in the 28 oz crushed tomatoes and 2 cups vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, until slightly thickened.
Step 3
Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth. (Alternatively, carefully transfer to a blender and blend in batches.)
Step 4
Stir in the 0.25 cup heavy cream and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes until heated through.
Step 5
Ladle the soup into bowls, top with the cooked shrimp and 0.25 cup fresh basil leaves. Add a swirl of extra cream if desired.
