Ingredients:

  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup baby spinach leaves
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  2. Add the sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing them to soften and release their flavor.
  3. Stir in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow it to cook for 2-3 minutes, reducing slightly.
  4. Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream, stirring gently to combine with the garlic-tomato mixture.
  5. Season the sauce with Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper to taste, adjusting the flavors as needed.
  6. Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the skillet, arranging them in a single layer to ensure even cooking.
  7. Cook the shrimp in the creamy sauce for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are pink and opaque throughout.
  8. Once the shrimp are cooked through, add the baby spinach leaves to the skillet, allowing them to wilt gently in the warm sauce.
  9. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the shrimp and spinach, stirring gently to incorporate and thicken the sauce.
  10. Continue to cook the dish for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce is thickened to your desired consistency.
  11. Remove the skillet from heat and garnish the creamy Tuscan shrimp with fresh parsley, if desired, for a touch of color and freshness.
  12. Serve the dish hot, either on its own or over cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles for a complete low-carb meal.
