1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and chopped shallots, sautéing until fragrant and softened, about 2-3 minutes.
2. Stir in the fresh rosemary, crushed red pepper flakes, and cook for another 30 seconds to bloom their flavor.
3. Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes soften and release their juices.
4. Pour in the white wine and bring it to a gentle simmer, allowing it to reduce slightly for 2-3 minutes.
5. Add the cannellini beans to the skillet, stirring to coat them in the flavorful sauce. Allow them to warm through for 2 minutes.
6. Push the beans mixture to one side of the skillet and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the empty side. Place the shrimp in a single layer and cook for 1-2 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque.
7. Combine the shrimp with the beans and stir in the baby spinach leaves, cooking just enough for the spinach to wilt gently, about 1-2 minutes.
8. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and chopped parsley. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
9. Serve warm with slices of rustic baguette, if desired, to soak up the flavorful sauce.
