Instructions

  1. 1

    Boil the fettuccine in salted water until al dente, reserving 1 cup pasta water before draining.

  2. 2

    Pat the peeled shrimp dry and season with salt. Melt 2 tbsp butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high and sear the shrimp until pink and curled, about 2 minutes per side, then set aside.

  3. 3

    Melt the remaining butter in the same skillet, add the minced garlic, and cook 1 minute until fragrant.

  4. 4

    Pour in the heavy cream, bring to a gentle simmer, and whisk in the parmesan and black pepper until smooth, about 3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Toss in the fettuccine and shrimp, loosening with pasta water until the sauce coats silkily.

  6. 6

    Shower with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
