Instructions

1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and melt 1 tablespoon of the butter with the oil.
2. Add the shrimp and cook about 2 minutes per side, until just cooked through and pink. Move to a bowl and set aside.
3. In the same pan, soften the diced onion in the remaining butter.
4. Add the garlic and cook about 1 minute until fragrant.
5. Pour in the white wine if using and reduce by half, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the pan.
6. Add the drained sun-dried tomatoes and fry for 2 minutes.
7. Lower heat to medium-low, add the half and half or heavy cream, and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring now and then.
8. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
9. Stir in the spinach and let it wilt into the sauce, then mix in the Parmesan and simmer about 1 more minute until melted.
10. For a thicker sauce, add the cornstarch mixture to the centre of the pan and keep simmering while stirring quickly until it thickens.
11. Return the shrimp to the pan, add the dried herbs and parsley, and stir through.
12. Serve over pasta, rice or steamed vegetables.
