Equipment

Large Skillet

Ingredients

2 Pounds Raw Shrimp
1 Pound Mushrooms
Salt and Pepper to taste
4 Tbsp Butter

Ingredients to Make the Sauce:

½ Cup Dry White Wine or Chicken Broth
5 Cloves Garlic minced
2 Tbsp Dijon Mustard
2 Cups Heavy Whipping Cream
½ Cup Parmesan Cheese shredded
4 Cups Baby Spinach
2 Tbsp Basil fresh (chopped) or 1 Tsp Dried Basil

Instructions

Prepare the Shrimp and Mushrooms:

Begin by melting the butter in a large skillet and add the mushrooms. Cook the mushrooms until they begin to brown and all the moisture is released. Remove the mushrooms from the pan and set aside.
To the same pan saute the raw shrimp just until they turn pink and remove from the pan. Set them aside and begin preparing the cream sauce.

Prepare the Sauce:

Sauté Garlic: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic. Sauté it for about 30 seconds, or until it becomes fragrant. Be careful not to let it burn.
Deglaze with White Wine: Pour in the dry white wine and use a wooden spoon to scrape up any flavorful browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let it simmer for about 2 minutes, allowing the alcohol to evaporate and the flavors to meld
Add Dijon Mustard: Whisk in the Dijon mustard until well combined. Let the mixture simmer for another one minute, allowing it to reduce slightly.
Introduce Parmesan and Cream: Reduce the heat to medium-low and gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese. Once it's fully incorporated, pour in the heavy whipping cream. Continue to gently whisk until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Add the chopped baby spinach to the sauce and stir until wilted.
Return Shrimp and Mushrooms: Carefully place the sauteed shrimp and mushrooms back into the skillet, nestling them into the luscious sauce.
Simmer and Garnish: Let the dish simmer gently for an additional few minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your liking. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Serve and Garnish: Plate the Creamy Shrimp and Mushrooms, ensuring each portion is generously bathed in the luxurious sauce. Garnish with fresh basil leaves for a burst of aromatic freshness.
