Ingredients

  • 8 oz pasta ex. rigatoni, rotini, penne

Shrimp

  • 1.2 lb large shrimp peeled, deveined, tails removed
  • 1/2 teaspoon Clubhouse Roasted Red Pepper & Garlic seasoning
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoons sun-dried tomato oil

Sauce

  • 1 tablespoons sun-dried tomato oil
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes optional (or use a dash of cayenne)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Clubhouse Roasted Red Pepper & Garlic seasoning
  • 1/2 tablespoon garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes chopped
  • 1/2 cup roasted red peppers chopped
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 3 oz spinach
  • 1/2 to 1 oz Parmesan* finely grated
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • Torn fresh basil leaves for serving

Instructions

  • Cook the pasta in salted boiling water accoring to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  • In a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1 tablespoon of the sun-dried tomato oil.
  • Add the shrimp and season with the Clubhouse Roasted Red Pepper & Garlic seasoning and salt and black pepper and cook, about 3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  • In the same skillet over medium heat, add the remaining tablespoon of sun-dried tomato oil and saute the tomato paste, red pepper flakes/cayenne, and remaining Clubhouse Roasted Red Pepper & Garlic seasoning, until tomato paste deepens in color, about 1 minute.
  • Add the sun-dried tomatoes, roasted red peppers, stock, cream, and Italian seasoning. Bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits, and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce slightly reduces, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the spinach and cook. If using fresh spinach, cook until wilted, if using frozen spinach, thaw it and drain well, then add to the pan, Simmer for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add the pasta and shrimp back in, and add the parmesan. (*I use a micro grater so generally end up adding a bit more than if it was normally grated.)
  • Cook, stirring, until pasta is coated and sauce is glossy; season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  • Remove skillet from heat, cover, and let it sit 2 to 3 minutes. Give pasta another stir to coat.
  • Serve sprinkled with torn basil leaves and some more grated parmesan.
