Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add salt and cook angel hair according to package directions for al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water before draining. Drain pasta, rinse with cold water and set aside.
- Heat large deep skillet on medium heat. Add half of the oil and butter.
- Pat shrimp dry with paper towels, if needed. Season with salt and black pepper on both sides. Add shrimp to skillet and brown on both sides (about 1-2 minutes per side). You'll know they're done when they turn pink.
- Remove shrimp from pan and add minced garlic. Saute for 2-3 minutes being careful not to burn.
- Add the remaining oil and butter. Stir in the flour and cook for a couple of minutes.
- Turn off heat and pour in white wine, chicken broth, lemon juice and lemon zest, whisking constantly to deglaze the pan and create a thick lump-free sauce. Turn heat back on to a medium-low.
- Add in spinach, stir and simmer until spinach is wilted.
- Stir in sundried tomatoes, heavy cream, and Parmesan cheese. Simmer until warmed through and cheese is melted.
- If your sauce needs to be thinned out, add some of the reserved pasta water until it is to your liking.
- Add shrimp back into skillet, along with cooked angel hair pasta. Simmer JUST until warmed through so you don't overcook the shrimp or the pasta!
- Garnish with fresh basil and more Parmesan cheese, if desired.
Notes
- *If you don't have or don't want to use white wine, simply substitute with more chicken broth.
