1 tablespoon butter |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
2 cloves garlic, minced |
1/2 cup thinly sliced shallots |
1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined |
salt and pepper to taste |
1 dash dried red pepper flakes (optional) |
1/4 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drained and diced |
1/2 cup cognac |
1/2 cup fat free half-and-half |
Directions:
1. Heat the butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, and saute the garlic and shallots until lightly browned. Stir in shrimp, and season with salt, pepper, and red pepper. Mix in sun-dried tomatoes. Cook and stir 5 minutes, or until shrimp is opaque and lightly browned. 2. Pour cognac into the skillet, and stir to loosen browned bits from bottom. Reduce heat to low, and stir in half-and-half. Simmer 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened. |
