Sautéd Shrimp in a Cream Sauce

Welcome back fitness friends! I have been so busy lately that I have not had a lot of time to do any extra cooking and I know you experience the same problem weekly! So I have put together a series of recipes that should take under ten minutes from prep to finish! I will try to post quick recipes more frequently because we all know summer is our busiest time of the year trying to stay fit for all those pool parties ;).

The recipe I chose to post this week is so delicious and so simple but it tastes elaborate and gourmet! We are combining garlic shrimp and goat cheese over freshly steamed broccoli, it is low carb, low fat and packed with protein! If you don’t care for seafood just sub with chicken! So let’s start our stop watches and hit the kitchen! Ten minutes…ready…set….GO!

Skinny Grocery List:

16oz Medium Shrimp (Un-thawed - Tail - Off) (41/50 Count is perfect) Go Fresh! It’s the best!

2oz Goat Cheese (Soft and at Room Temperature)

3/4 Tbsp. Garlic Salt (feel free to use a garlic blend! YUM!)

PAM (Non-Stick Spray)

4 C Broccoli (Save time and buy 2 bags of Steamed Broccoli - Premium Cuts are best)

Dash Sea Salt (Optional)

Your Ingredients

Kitchen Tools:

Large Pan

Spatula

Medium Mixing Bowl

Measuring Spoons

Measuring Cup

Food Scale (I cannot stress measuring enoughJ)

Ten Minute Tools

Directions – From prep to your mouth in under 10 minutes:

Pull out your Goat cheese, weigh out 2oz and place into the medium mixing bowl so it can reach room temp

Start by putting your steamed broccoli in the microwave (follow directions on the bag - 1 Bag at a time)

Heat a large Skillet on Medium-High Heat

Spray with non-stick spray and place 16oz of un-thawed or fresh shrimp (tail-off) into your pan

Sauté for approximately 1-2 minutes and add 3/4 tbsp. of Garlic Salt

Sauté until shrimp has reached a red color – Roughly 5-7 minutes (If precooked – shrimp will shrink up when it is done)

While shrimp is cooking set broccoli aside

1) Microwave Broccoli  2) Heat Spray with Non-stick and Add Shrimp
3) Add Garlic and Saute 4) Add to Cheese

After shrimp is fully cooked carefully place it into the mixing bowl (Avoid adding any of the excess water from the pan to the bowl)

While shrimp is still hot mix it with the cheese so it is fully melted and coats the shrimp.

Measure out 3/4 C of Broccoli add a dash of sea salt if you wish and top with 4oz of your shrimp mixture…DONE! TIME! So easy!

5) Excess Water  6) Mix Shrimp with Cheese
7) Measure 3/4 C Broccoli  8) Add a Dash of Sea Salt
  



Top with 4oz of your Creamy Shrimp and Enjoy!
