Easy Shrimp Alfredo Pasta

If using frozen shrimp, place them in a colander and run under cool water until thawed.

Start boiling a salted pot of water for the fettuccine. Cook it al dente according to package directions.

Add butter, cream cheese, cream, chicken broth, and garlic to a skillet over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, stir to help the cream cheese incorporate into the sauce, about 2 minutes.

Allow the sauce to gently bubble for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until reduced. Grate parmesan cheese while the sauce cooks.

Stir the grated parmesan into the sauce and cook for about 1 minute.

Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked.

Season sauce with salt and pepper as needed. Toss the cooked pasta with the sauce and serve immediately.
