Large shrimp cooked with sun-dried tomatoes, artichokes, and spinach in a creamy sauce.

# What You'll Need:

→ Shrimp

01 - 1 pound large raw shrimp, peeled and deveined (16-20 count)
02 - 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
03 - ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning (thyme, basil, oregano, rosemary)
04 - ¼ teaspoon salt
05 - ¼ teaspoon coarse black pepper
06 - 5 cloves garlic, minced
07 - 2 tablespoons olive oil

→ Creamy Tuscan sauce

08 - 4 ounces sun-dried tomatoes, chopped (about ¼ cup)
09 - 14 ounces artichoke hearts, drained and chopped (1 can or about 1 cup)
10 - 4 ounces fresh spinach
11 - 1 cup heavy cream
12 - ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
13 - Salt, to taste

# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - Combine shrimp with smoked paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and coarse black pepper, ensuring even coating.
02 - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add shrimp and minced garlic, cooking approximately 2 minutes per side. Avoid overcrowding to prevent steaming; cook in batches if necessary. Remove shrimp and set aside on a plate.
03 - In the same skillet, add chopped sun-dried tomatoes and artichoke hearts. Sauté on medium heat for 1 minute, stirring continuously.
04 - Add fresh spinach to the skillet and cook on medium heat until wilted, approximately 2 minutes.
05 - Add heavy cream and smoked paprika to the skillet with the vegetables. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for about 1 minute, stirring frequently. Season with salt to taste and adjust paprika if desired.
06 - Return seared shrimp to the skillet, tossing them gently in the sauce to combine and warm through.

# Additional Notes:

01 - Avoid overcrowding the skillet when searing shrimp to ensure proper browning rather than steaming.
