🧂 Ingredients

1 Heat 2 medium sized saute pans to medium heat.
2 Once each are hot add a 1/4 tablespoon of butter to each pan. Then add half the
diced garlic and half the diced jalapeno into each pan, and stir around with the
butter.
3 In one pan add the shrimp, toss in the melted butter and allow to cook shrimp on
one side for about 3 minutes.
4 In the other pan add the spinach, toss with the melted butter. Add red pepper
flake and continue to toss for about 3 minutes. The spinach will begin to wilt.
Turn the heat down to low and allow to sit while you work with the shrimp.
5 Stir the shrimp, garlic, and jalapenos around. Then flip each shrimp to the
opposite side. Allow to cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until done.
6 While waiting for the shrimp to finish, plate the sauteed spinach on a plate.
Season with a dash of freshly cracked black pepper.
7 Now that the shrimp should be fully cooked, toss them one last time to absorb
the flavors from the pan.
8 Top the spinach with the cooked shrimp and some of the chard jalapenos and
garlic remaining in the pan. Finish with a few cracks of black pepper, a dash of
red pepper flake and garnish with the thinly shaved red onion.
