Ingredients
Scale
1 lb of shrimp, peeled and deveined
9 oz of tortellini, fresh or frozen
4 cups of fresh spinach
4 cloves of garlic, minced
2 tbsp of olive oil
1 cup of heavy cream
1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
In a large pan over medium heat, add olive oil and let it heat up. Once hot, add your shrimp and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until shrimp turns pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds, stirring continuously to prevent burning and releasing a fragrant aroma.
Pour in the heavy cream and add the tortellini to the pan. Stir until well combined and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the tortellini is cooked through and al dente.
Once the tortellini is cooked, add the fresh spinach and cooked shrimp back into the pan. Stir everything together until the spinach has wilted, which should take about 2 minutes. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as desired.
Remove the pan from heat, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top, and serve immediately.
