Shrimp Florentine
Another great recipe if you like shrimp, garlic & spinach, and also a quick and easy dinner:
Shrimp Florentine
Sautee some shrimp (in a large skillet with a cover) in a little olive oil and about 3 cloves of garlic, pressed. When shrimp are just about done, remove from pan. Put in the spinach (bagged is wonderful) and toss with the remaining juices, you may have to add some liquid, depending on how much spinach you add. I like a lot of spinach. When spinach is cooked down enought to get the lid on (I like a lot of spinach), put the shrimp back into the pan on top of the spinach, and cover with several slices of provolone cheese. Put the lid back on and cook slowly (you could almost turn off the stove at this point) until the cheese melts.
Serve with fettuccini, parmesan cheese, lemon slices to squeeze on top, and (of course) garlic bread.
We had this for our Valentine's dinner tonight, it was awesome!
We had this dish about 35 year ago at Two Guys From Italy in South Lake Tahoe, and then they went out of business. We couldn't find this dish anywhere else so we kind of re-created it.
