- 1/2 large onion, diced in 1/2 inch pieces
- 1 teaspoon finely minced garlic

- 2 tablespoons capers
- 24 oz. spinach leaves
Instructions
- Thaw shrimp overnight in the fridge or in a plastic bag in cool water.

- Drain the tomatoes in a colander to let most of the juice drain off.
- Chop the green pepper and onion, and prepare the garlic, capers, and Italian Herb Blend.
- Dissolve the Knorr Shrimp Bouillon cube in hot water.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large frying pan, add green bell pepper and onion, and sauté over medium-high heat until slightly browned, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and Italian Herb Blend, and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
- Add drained tomatoes and 1/2 cup shrimp bouillon mixture and simmer over low heat for about 10 minutes.

- In another frying pan, heat the second tablespoon of oil and wilt the spinach, turning frequently, in about 1-2 minutes.
- After the 10 minutes of cooking, add shrimp and capers, cooking just until shrimp turn pink and firm, about 3-4 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Divide wilted spinach into four bowls and top with 1/4 of the shrimp mixture. Serve hot.
