To make this Creamy and Spicy Happy Shrimp, You’ll need the following Ingredients:

Ingredients:

1/4 cup butter

1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic

1 pound peeled and deveined medium shrimp

1/4 cup chopped green onions

1/4 cup dry white wine

1/3 cup heavy cream

2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil

2 Roma (plum) tomatoes, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the shrimp, garlic, and green onions.

2. Stir the shrimp back into the sauce, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Heat through and serve.
