Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb. shrimp 16-20 count peeled (deveined, and tails removed)
  • 12 ounces fettuccine
  • 8 tablespoons butter
  • 2 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 ¼ cups freshly shredded Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Boil the Fettuccine: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine al dente according to the package instructions. Drain well once cooked.
  2. Prepare the Alfredo Sauce: In a large skillet over medium-low heat, melt 6 tablespoons of butter. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute, stirring constantly. Pour in the heavy cream and let simmer for 4-5 minutes until slightly thickened.
  3. Cook the Shrimp: Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. In another skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the shrimp to this skillet and cook for about 1½-2 minutes on each side until pink and opaque.
  4. Combine Everything: Reduce heat on the cream mixture to very low. Stir in shredded Parmesan cheese until melted and blended into the sauce; season with salt and pepper to taste. Add cooked fettuccine and shrimp into the skillet with the sauce; toss gently to coat everything evenly. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
