Instructions

Melt the butter on medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add the flour and cook for about a minute, stirring until smooth.

Add the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds or until fragrant.

Stir in the cream, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, Parmesan and sun-dried tomatoes. Simmer for 2 minutes.

Add the shrimp and cook for around 5 minutes or until they’re cooked through and the sauce is slightly thickened, taking care not to overcook them.

Add the spinach and basil and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Season with salt & pepper to taste.
