- After 5 minutes total cooking time, add sun-dried tomatoes for another minute. Add salt and pepper to taste. Now add goat cheese, yogurt, and sour cream.
- Within another minute or two, add raw shrimp. One minute more while stirring, as shrimp ‘pinks’, simmer one last half-minute. If shrimp is already cooked, please add only in the last half-minute to sauté mixture.
