Method

Pasta Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Linguine

    In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the linguine pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Shrimp and Vegetables

  1. 2

    Sauté the Shrimp and Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

  2. 3

    Add Shrimp and Spinach

    Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until pink and opaque, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes and fresh spinach, cooking until the spinach wilts.

Cream Sauce

  1. 4

    Prepare the Cream Sauce

    Pour the heavy cream into the skillet and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Combine and Serve

  1. 5

    Combine Pasta with Sauce

    Add the cooked linguine to the skillet, tossing gently to coat the pasta in the cream sauce and allow it to heat through.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Serve the Toscana hot, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
