Instructions

Cook fettuccine pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add shrimp, season with salt and pepper, and cook until pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove shrimp and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Pour in heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in Parmesan cheese until sauce is smooth and thickened.
Add cooked fettuccine and shrimp back into the skillet. Toss to coat evenly with the Alfredo sauce.
Season with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

For extra flavor, add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes to the sauce or serve with a side of garlic bread.
