  • 2 cups heavy cream 🥛
  • 2 cups chicken broth 🍲

  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese 🧀
  • 1 teaspoon salt 🧂
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 🌶️
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning 🌿
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish) 🌿
  • Lemon wedges (optional) 🍋

📝 Instructions:

1. Sauté the Shrimp:

  1. Heat the oil and butter:
  • In a large, deep skillet, heat the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat.
  1. Cook the shrimp:
  • Add the shrimp to the skillet and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

2. Make the Alfredo Sauce:

  1. Sauté the garlic:
  • In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, but not browned.
  1. Add cream and broth:
  • Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.

3. Cook the Pasta:

  1. Add the fettuccine:
  • Add the fettuccine pasta to the skillet, making sure it’s fully submerged in the sauce. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente and the sauce has thickened.

4. Add the Cheese and Shrimp:

  1. Stir in Parmesan:
  • Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
  1. Return the shrimp:
  • Add the cooked shrimp back into the skillet, tossing everything together until the shrimp are heated through.

5. Serve:

  1. Garnish and serve:
  • Garnish the fettuccine Alfredo with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges for an extra burst of flavor.
