Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons olive oil
-
1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
-
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
-
1 pinch salt to taste
-
1 pinch dried basil, or to taste
-
1 pinch paprika, or to taste
-
1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
-
1 cup half-and-half
-
¾ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
-
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
-
½ (16 ounce) package dry fettuccine pasta
-
1 pinch red pepper flakes, or to taste
Directions
-
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Immediately add shrimp and garlic; cook until shrimp is pink, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle salt, basil, and paprika over shrimp. Cook and stir for 1 minute more, leaving shrimp slightly undercooked to finish cooking in the sauce.
-
Remove shrimp mixture from the skillet. Add mushrooms to the same skillet. Cook and stir, seasoning with salt, until juicy, about 5 minutes. Add the shrimp; immediately pour in half-and-half, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, constantly stirring, until cheese melts, 5 to 8 minutes. Cover with a lid and remove from heat.
-
Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. If cream sauce is too thick, add some pasta water in small amounts. Drain pasta and rinse with cold water. Add to the cream sauce.
