Notes:

The first time I ate this was in New Orleans and had crawfish instead of shrimp. This dish is amazing! It is a family favorite and if I don’t make it every month or so, I start to hear about it.

Spinach can be added to most any skillet meal. Throw a couple handfuls in about 2-3 mins before the meal is done and stir until wilted.
