Zesty Garlic Shrimp & White Bean Skillet (34g Protein)

Published: 8/10/2026

A Mediterranean-style skillet designed for volume and satiety. The addition of cannellini beans provides a dual-source protein boost and significant dietary fiber — all in one pan.

Ingredients (4 servings)

• 1 lb (450 g) large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1 can (15 oz / 425 g) cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 tsp (1 g) crushed red pepper
• 2 cups (60 g) fresh spinach
• 1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil
• 2 cups (300 g) cauliflower rice

Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Sauté the shrimp and garlic for 2–3 minutes until the shrimp curl into a C shape.
2. Add the beans and crushed red pepper; cook for 2 minutes to heat through.
3. Stir in the spinach until just wilted.
4. Serve over sautéed cauliflower rice for a low-carb, high-protein volume meal.

Pro Tips

• Sear, Don’t Steam: Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels before cooking to ensure a proper sear rather than steaming.
