Step 1

Cook the linguine according to package directions, and save one cup of the cooking water. Drain and return the pasta to the pot. Add a drizzle of olive oil to prevent it from sticking.

Step 2

Season the shrimp with salt, pepper, and Cajun seasoning

Step 3

In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil, and cook shrimp just until pink, about 2 minutes. Remove from the pan and transfer to a plate.

Step 4

Using the same saucepan, melt the butter and whisk in the flour. Cook it until slightly golden.

Step 5

Whisk in the white wine and the heavy cream. Keep whisking to prevent lumps from forming, and cook for about a minute.

Step 6

Whisk in the reserved pasta water and Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper

Step 7

At this time, mix in the linguine

Step 8

Return the cooked shrimp to the pan and add the chopped parsley. Mix everything together and check the seasoning for salt.
