What can you substitute the parmesan cheese with I can’t eat parmesan cheese?
The parmesan cheese is to thicken it up as well as add a touch of cheesy flavor.
Wow Amazing! so delish
Quick, easy and really does taste like something you would get at a restaurant
Was a little runny so added some corn starch and it turned out nice and creamy. Very delicious dish.
Great idea! Thank you for sharing! XOXO
Hi – Your creamy garlic tuscan shrimp and chicken is delicious! I was thinking of making it for New Years eve. Do you think i can make it ahead of time and then heat it in the oven?
Yes, that sounds great! Enjoy and Happy New Year! XOXO
Wow! This Creamy Tuscan Garlic Shrimp recipe was definitely a keeper. I followed it to a “T” except I had some extra mushrooms so I threw them in. It was very very good and so easy.
It went great with a little side salad with raspberry vinaigrette and of course garlic bread.
Can’t wait to make it again. My family was very pleased with dinner tonight..
I am making the Tuscan garlic shrimp recipe and because of the heavy cream and wondering if this can be done ahead and reheated low ?
Hello Carol!!
Yes. You should be able to reheat at a later time no problem. Thanks for following along with me!
Tried this tonight, it was delicious! My family loved it, i’m sure I will be making it again in the near future!
GREAT recipe. I used fresh kale from the garden in place of the spinach, added chunky cut fresh mushrooms, and used a pound of small shrimp instead. I served it over tomato basil noodles.
Will make this recipe for company in the future.
I never leave comments on food web sites unless I’m excited about a dish. Creamy Tuscan Garlic Chicken is my new favorite. The flavors are wonderful! Can’t wait to make it again. Easy to make also!
This recipe is delicious! I doubled the recipe and served it over penne. The only things I did different were adding baby bella mushrooms and a big pinch of cayenne. My guests LOVED it. I’ve also have made the Tuscon sauce exactly as instructed with salmon filets and served over rice. Also delicious! Great recipe … thank you!
