## Ingredients

- 4 tbsp unsalted butter — divided (or ghee, or olive oil)

- 1 ½ lb medium shrimp — peeled and deveined. (700g) is the source parenthetical; original US quantity controls.

- to taste Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper — to taste. Unquantified in source; use to taste or as optional garnish as stated.

- 5 count garlic — minced

- ½ count onion — minced

- ½ cup sundried tomatoes — chopped

- ¼ cup chicken stock or veggie broth. (60ml) is the source parenthetical; original US quantity controls.

- 1 tsp hot sauce of your choice. (we used Sriracha)

- 2 cup chopped spinach. (or baby spinach)

- 1 cup heavy whipping cream or. (coconut cream)

- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley — for garnish

- to taste Crushed red chili pepper flakes — optional. Unquantified in source; use to taste or as optional garnish as stated. Optional; excluded or included as stated in the publisher nutrition.

## Equipment

- Stovetop and large skillet

- Knife and cutting board

- Instant-read thermometer

## Cook

Prepare cold sides first. Keep raw-poultry tools separate; use clean serving utensils. Probe more than one thick piece. A timer is not a doneness test.

1. **Step 1.** Season peeled shrimp with salt and pepper. Heat one-quarter of the butter over medium-high heat and cook shrimp for 2–3 minutes, until opaque; reserve.

2. **Step 2.** Stir onion and garlic in the pan for 1 minute, then tomatoes for another minute. Add stock and hot sauce, boil, and simmer for 1–2 minutes to reduce by half.

3. **Step 3.** Stir remaining butter into the sauce gradually. Add spinach and cream; allow spinach to wilt.

4. **Step 4.** Return shrimp for about 1 minute without overcooking. Finish with parsley and optional chili flakes.

## Nutrition per serving

Calories: Not provided; protein: Not provided; total carbs: Not provided; fiber: Not provided; net carbs: Not provided

Source nutrition is reported only where its per-portion basis is supported. Unavailable totals are not estimated.

Known allergens for these plates: milk, shellfish. Check product labels and cross-contact.

## First-cook checks and limits

- The publisher lists 331 calories without a serving size or complete nutrition breakdown; per-portion nutrition remains unreported.

- Ingredient quantities are scaled from 4 original portions to four portions. Fractions of whole items may need weighing or dividing after preparation. Larger batches need extra cooking space or batches; keep thickness and endpoint checks.

- Adapted from Christina Cherrier. This adaptation has not been kitchen-tested.

- The source does not provide verified values for every per-portion macronutrient. Missing values stay unreported; a keto label from the publisher is not a verified net-carb total.

- Safe doneness checks are added to the publisher method; timers alone do not establish doneness.

## Leftovers

Refrigerate in shallow containers within two hours, or one hour above 90°F. Use within 3–4 days or freeze; reheat to 165°F. Keep cold greens and yogurt separate.
