Directions
- Season shrimp with Tony’s Original Creole Seasoning and Italian seasoning and set aside.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in garlic and ginger and cook for 1 minutes, or until fragrant.
- Add shrimp to skillet and stir into butter. Arrange shrimp in a single layer and cook for 2 minutes. Flip shrimp and cook for another two minutes, or until shrimp are pink and fully cooked. Use tongs to remove shrimp from skillet and set them aside.
- Add onions and bell peppers to skillet. Pour in the chicken broth and scrape the brown bits from the bottom of the skillet while stirring frequently. Cook vegetables for 3 minutes or until they are soft and onions are translucent (chicken broth will reduce by half during this time).
- Pour in coconut milk and stir into vegetables. Add in cream cheese and stir until it melts. Once the sauce starts to boil, reduce heat to a simmer. Toss spinach and basil leaves into sauce. Stir in red pepper flakes.
- Add shrimp back into the skillet and cover with the coconut sauce. Let cook on low for another 5 minutes.
- Serve with rice, pasta or low carb/gluten-free alternatives.
