Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 pounds shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 2 ounces spinach
  • 2 ounces unsalted butter
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 6 garlic cloves minced
  • ½ cup dry white wine
  • 2 tbsp fish sauce
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • bread for serving

Instructions
 

  • Grate the garlic into a medium bowl. Add shrimp, 1 tbsp olive oil, fish sauce, coriander, cumin, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika and black pepper. Toss and set aside for 10 minutes. If you want to marinate them longer, no problem, transfer the shrimp to the fridge and chill for 30 minutes or up to 1 hour.
  • It’s important to prepare everything fast and cook over a high heat. Heat the remaining 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over high. Place the shrimp in a single layer, sear for 1 minute. Flip and sear the other side, 1 minute.
  • Pour in white wine, cook for 1 minute. Add butter, stir until melted. Then add spinach and toss until wilted,  30 seconds to 1 minute max. Turn off the heat. Finish off with lemon juice and black pepper. Serve!
