Instructions:

1. Cook the Shrimp:
   • Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
   • Season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Sauté the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
2. Prepare the Sauce:
   • In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
   • Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes and cook for another minute.
   • Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
3. Add Seasoning:
   • Stir in the Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes (if using). Let the sauce thicken slightly, about 2-3 minutes.
4. Incorporate Spinach:
   • Add the spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes.
5. Combine Shrimp and Sauce:
   • Return the shrimp to the skillet and toss to coat them in the creamy sauce. Let everything heat through for 1-2 minutes.
6. Serve:
   • Garnish with fresh parsley or basil and serve immediately.
   • This dish pairs beautifully with pasta, rice, or crusty bread to soak up the luscious sauce.
