Ingredients
1 lb shrimp, shelled and deveined
3-4 Tbsp avocado oil or neutral oil
2 Tbsp butter
1 Tbsp minced garlic
1/4 cup white wine
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
chopped parsley for garnish
salt and pepper
red pepper flakes, optional
Directions
- Season shrimp with salt. Set aside.
- Heat sauté pan and then add the 3-4 tbsp avocado or neutral oil. Add shrimp to oil. Cook in batches so as not to overcrowd the skillet. Sear on both sides and remove from pan.
- Remove remaining oil from pan. Add butter and melt. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add wine and cook until reduced. Add heavy cream and parmesan cheese and cook to reduce and thicken to desired consistency.
- Add shrimp back into cream sauce and toss. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and fresh ground pepper and additional parmesan cheese.
Notes
- I had left over pasta that I reheated and add shrimp and cream sauce to pasta. Could be eaten as is or over rice or pasta.
