1. Prepare the Shrimp Marinade
In a mixing bowl, blend together the minced garlic, freshly grated ginger, ground turmeric, kosher salt, and black pepper with olive oil to create a vibrant marinade.
2. Marinate the Shrimp
Introduce the large shrimp to the aromatic marinade, ensuring each one is well-coated. Allow them to marinate while you prepare the skillet.
3. Sear the Shrimp
Heat two tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, carefully place the marinated shrimp in the skillet, searing undisturbed for about 2 minutes or until slightly opaque.
4. Create the Creamy Coconut Sauce
After turning the shrimp, pour in the full-fat coconut milk and add soy sauce. Stir and allow the sauce to simmer on high heat for about 3 minutes, letting the flavors meld.
5. Add Spinach to the Sauce
Toss in the baby spinach and stir until the leaves are just wilted, which should take a short time due to the heat of the sauce.
6. Finish with Lime and Herbs
Remove the skillet from the heat and finish the dish by squeezing in the juice from half a lime. Add thinly sliced chiles, scallions, and cilantro for a burst of fresh flavor.
