Step 1

Cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

Grate parmesan cheese and set aside, to allow it to come to room temperature.

Heat a large sauce pan over medium heat. Add butter and cook until melted. Add garlic, stirring frequently for 1 minute. Add cream and whisk to combine, bring to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring often.

Step 4

Turn heat to low and add parmesan cheese, whisking until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add pasta and toss to coat.

Step 5

Season shrimp with salt and pepper. Melt 1 tablespoon butter or oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add shrimp and cook, stirring occasionally, until pink, about 2-3 minutes. Serve noodles with a scoop of shrimp on top. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
