Description

A fabulous, one pan wonder of creamy garlic shrimp that can be whipped up in under 30 minutes. This dish is gluten free, paleo, low carb, and Whole30 compliant, making it a wonderful option for the whole family.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons grass-fed butter or ghee
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 1/2 pounds large shrimp, deveined, with tails on
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup chicken bone broth
  • 8 ounces sun dried tomatoes in olive oil
  • 15 ounces canned coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • 8 cups spinach, lightly packed
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • kosher salt, to taste
  • black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Step: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the ghee / butter / oil and sauté garlic for about 1 minute, stirring frequently.
  2. Step: Add shrimp to pan (pat dry first) and cook on about 2 minutes each side until just opaque throughout, then transfer to a bowl.
  3. Step: Increase heat to medium-high. Add the diced onion to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes until soft.
  4. Step: Add broth to the pan, scraping the brown bits from the bottom and stirring frequently. Cook until broth has reduced down by at least 50%.
  5. Step: Add 1 tablespoon of oil from the sun-dried tomatoes jar and all of the drained, julienned sun-dried tomatoes. Sautee with the onions for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and well combined.
  6. Step: Add coconut milk and nutritional yeast to the pan. Once the coconut milk has reached a boil, turn the heat down to medium-low.
  7. Step: Add spinach to the pan and stir until slightly wilted, about 2 minutes.
  8. Step: Add shrimp back into the pan and sprinkle with seasoning. Stir frequently for another 5-7 minutes, letting all of the flavors marinade.
  9. Step: Season with salt and pepper and serve.

Notes

If using frozen shrimp, make sure to thaw prior to cooking. It is important to dry your shrimp prior to adding to the pan to prevent the sauce from becoming watery. Drain the sun-dried tomatoes from the oil but save 1 tablespoon to cook with the dish.
