Shrimp Alfredo: 40 Min Creamy Bliss

Cook fettuccine according to package directions. Drain, reserving 1 cup of pasta water.

While pasta cooks, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, black pepper, and salt. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook for 2-3 minutes, until sauce thickens slightly.

In a separate skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until pink and cooked through.

Add cooked shrimp to the Alfredo sauce.

Add drained fettuccine to the skillet with the sauce and shrimp. Toss to coat. If the sauce is too thick, add a little reserved pasta water until desired consistency is reached.

Serve this delicious shrimp alfredo immediately.
