3

Remove shrimp from the fridge and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

6

Remove shrimp from the pan and set aside.

7

In the same preheated skillet, add onion, garlic, and sun-dried tomatoes, sautéing for about 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently.

Add chicken stock and stir to remove any browned bits stuck on the bottom of the pan, then turn the heat to low and simmer until the liquid is mostly reduced.

9

Add heavy cream, paprika, and crushed chili flakes to the skillet, stirring until a creamy sauce forms.

10

Add parmesan cheese and stir until it melts into the sauce.

11

Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.

12

Add the shrimp back to the skillet and continue to simmer for a couple of minutes until hot and bubbly.

13

Turn off the heat and chop some fresh basil to sprinkle on top before serving.
