Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Season shrimp evenly with salt and pepper.
  2. To a large skillet over medium-high heat, add oil. Once hot, add shrimp and cook about 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer the cooked shrimp to a plate and tent to keep warm. Set aside.
  3. Reduce heat to medium and add butter. Once melted, add shallots and sun-dried tomatoes. Cook until the shallots are softened (2-4 minutes). Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Sprinkle flour over the top and stir to combine.
  4. Add heavy cream, parmesan cheese, and cherry tomatoes. Stir to combine, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan as you go.
  5. Reduce heat to low. Simmer until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce has thickened slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
  6. Add spinach and stir to combine. Cook for 2-3 more minutes, or until the spinach is wilted.
  7. Top with cooked shrimp. Serve immediately garnished with parsley and extra parmesan cheese.
