Savor the decadence of this creamy shrimp and spinach fettuccine, a perfect fusion of delicate seafood, fresh greens, and rich pasta under a velvety blanket of homemade Alfredo sauce. An ideal dinner choice that is as nutritious as it is delicious.
Bring a pot of water to a boil with 1 tbsp of salt. Add fettuccine pasta and cook for 10-12 minutes until it's al dente. Drain the pasta and toss with 1 tbsp of olive oil, then set aside.
SHRIMP
2
While the pasta is cooking, season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp of butter in a pot over medium-high heat. Sear the shrimp in the butter for 2 minutes per side, or until just cooked through. Remove the shrimp from the pot and set aside.
SAUCE
3
In the same pot, add another 1 tbsp of butter and minced garlic cloves. Sauté for 2 minutes or until the garlic becomes fragrant. Add baby spinach and stir until it begins to wilt.
4
Pour in the cooking cream and continue to stir, letting it simmer on low heat until it thickens into a creamy sauce, about 5 minutes.
ASSEMBLY
5
Return the cooked shrimp to the pot. Stir in the cooked fettuccine and freshly grated parmesan cheese, mixing well until the pasta is evenly coated with the sauce.
SERVING
6
Divide the Creamy Shrimp and Spinach Fettuccine into two deep plates, give a final sprinkle of parmesan cheese on top before serving. Indulge in the creamy richness!
