Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound raw shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt plus more to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 3/4 teaspoon italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes oil-packed, drained, sliced
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine or chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream or half and half
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese freshly grated
  • 1 cup spinach packed, chopped

Instructions

  1. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add shrimp in a single layer, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 1–2 minutes per side until charred and opaque. Remove from pan and set aside.
