Ingredients
- 1 pound Fettuccine
Sauce:
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream divided
- 1 1/2 cups parmesan cheese grated
Shrimp:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt or to taste
- 1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes or to taste (I don't measure, I just toss some in)
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 pound extra-large raw shrimp shelled and deveined, tail on
- 4 tsp fresh parsley minced
- 1 tbsp lemon juice Freshly squeezed juice of half a lemon
Instructions
- Cook pasta in large pot of salted water. Drain and set aside.
- While the pasta is cooking, you can make the alfredo sauce in one pan and the shrimp in a separate skillet.
- For the alfredo sauce, add butter and garlic to a saute pan and heat over low heat. Allow to cook until the butter is infused with the garlic, about 5 minutes. Add 1 cup of heavy cream, stir, and allow to come to a simmer. Increase heat to medium, if needed. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and immediately add in parmesan cheese and remaining heavy cream. Stir to combine. It will take several minutes for the cheese to melt. It will look goopy at first and then the sauce will be creamy and smooth. If sauce needs to be thinned, add additional heavy cream.
