Description

A delicious shrimp dish cooked in a creamy garlic sauce with sun-dried tomatoes and fresh spinach.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb large shrimp (peeled and deveined, 1620 count)
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 5 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 oz sun-dried tomatoes (chopped, about 1/4 cup)
  • 14 oz artichoke hearts (drained and chopped, 1 can or 1 cup)
  • 4 oz fresh spinach
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika (for sauce)

Instructions

  1. Season shrimp with smoked paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add shrimp and minced garlic, cooking about 2 minutes per side until pink and golden on edges.
  3. Remove shrimp to a plate. If skillet is crowded, work in batches to avoid steaming the shrimp.
  4. To the same skillet, add chopped sun-dried tomatoes and artichokes. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute over medium heat.
  5. Add fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  6. Pour in heavy cream and add 1/4 teaspoon paprika. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 1 minute, stirring to combine.
  7. Return seared shrimp to the skillet. Spoon sauce over shrimp and simmer for about 2 minutes until shrimp is warmed through and fully cooked.
  8. Taste and season with additional salt if needed. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Can be served over pasta or with crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
