Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained and chopped
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3 cups fresh spinach
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Season the shrimp lightly with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  3. Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Do not let it burn.
  4. Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and cook for 1 minute.
  5. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
  6. Pour the heavy cream and chicken broth into the skillet. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  7. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minutes.
  8. Add the fresh spinach to the sauce. Cook until the spinach wilts down, about 2 minutes.
  9. Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet. Stir to coat the shrimp in the sauce.
  10. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Serve this skillet over zucchini noodles or cauliflower rice to keep the meal strictly keto.
  • For a richer sauce, use heavy whipping cream with a higher fat content.
  • If you prefer a tangier flavor, add 1 teaspoon of lemon juice at the end.
