1
Preheat oven to 375°F.
2
In a skillet, melt ½ tablespoon unsalted butter and add 1 minced garlic clove. Sauté for 1 minute, or until garlic is soft and fragrant.
3
Add shrimp to the skillet and cook for about 3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink. Set aside.
4
Cook whole wheat penne pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and return to the pot.
5
Drain the can of fire roasted diced tomatoes with garlic and add to the cooked pasta.
6
Stir in the cooked shrimp.
7
In a separate small skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter over medium-high heat and add the remaining 3 minced garlic cloves. Sauté for 1 minute.
8
Add all-purpose flour to the small skillet and stir until a soft, sticky mixture forms, about 1 minute.
9
Pour in half of the evaporated milk and whisk until smooth. When the mixture starts to thicken and bubble, add the remaining evaporated milk.
10
Once the mixture thickens and bubbles again, whisk in the light cream cheese until smooth.
11
If needed, add chicken broth to thin out the sauce. Season with salt, to taste.
12
Pour the sauce over the pasta and gently mix to combine. Transfer the mixture to a baking dish.
13
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
