Ingredients

Scale
  • 1½ lbs shrimp (peeled, deveined, and rinsed)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • Paprika and Italian herb blend
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small onion (chopped)
  • 5 cloves garlic (chopped)
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • 5 oz sun-dried tomatoes (drained and sliced)
  • 1⅓ cups cream (or light cream)
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 large handful fresh spinach

Instructions

  1. Preparation of the shrimp: Start by drying the shrimp with paper towels. Season them with salt, paprika, and the Italian herb blend. This step is crucial to infuse the shrimp with flavors from the beginning. (Duration: 2 minutes)
  2. Cooking the shrimp: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter and olive oil. Once the mixture is hot (you should hear a slight sizzling), add the seasoned shrimp. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque. Do not overcrowd the skillet to avoid uneven cooking. (Duration: 4-5 minutes)
  3. Preparation of the vegetables: Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set them aside on a plate. In the same skillet, add the onion and sauté over medium heat for 3-4 minutes until translucent. This allows the cooking juices from the shrimp to be released. (Duration: 4 minutes)
  4. Adding the garlic: Incorporate the chopped garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it. (Duration: 1 minute)
  5. Incorporation of the wine: Deglaze the skillet with the white wine, scraping the bottom to release any stuck particles. Add the sun-dried tomatoes and sauté for 1 minute. This allows the flavors to meld together. (Duration: 2 minutes)
  6. Preparation of the sauce: Add the cream, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Incorporate the parmesan cheese and mix well. Bring everything to a gentle boil and then let it simmer for a few minutes to thicken the sauce. (Duration: 3-4 minutes)
  7. Finalization: Remove the skillet from the heat, then add the fresh spinach and shrimp. Stir to coat the shrimp well with the sauce and wilt the spinach. Serve immediately. (Duration: 2 minutes)

Nutrition

Keywords: Avoid overcooking the shrimp as it can make them rubbery. Use a wide skillet for even cooking and to prevent the shrimp from clumping together. Prepare all your ingredients in advance for a smoother cooking experience.
