Instructions:
- Prepare your penne pasta according to package instructions.
- When you notice your pasta is almost done add your shrimp and cook until no longer pink.
- Drain well and keep just 1 cup of water for the next step. Keep your pasta and shrimp warm and set aside.
- Heat in a pan your oil over medium-high heat. Add butter.
- When the butter melts add your warm pasta to the pan. Toss to coat then Season.
- Cook for 2 mins, often stirring.
- Next, add spinach, and cook for 1 min until wilted.
- You can add half a cup of water water if necessary to cook spinach.
- Last, add shrimp and cheese.
- Stir until your cheese is well melted. Add more seasonings depending on how you like it.
- Garnish with dried cilantro before serving.
Notes:
Feel free to use any kind of pasta you like. If you prefer corkscrews, linguine, or spaghetti, it will perfectly work as much as the penne pasta does. I like to serve mashed potatoes with it. Egg noodles or crusty bread as well. Don’t use frozen spinach.
