Heat Things Up: Swirl olive oil in a skillet over a medium-high flame. Toss in your shrimp—seasoned to your liking with salt and pepper. Cook until they’re no longer playing coy but fully committed—yes, beautifully opaque and curled. Remove and set aside.
Butter & Garlic Symphony: In the same skillet, melt the butter and introduce minced garlic. A mere 30-second sauté and the air should be perfumed with the rich aroma.
Liquidity Infusion: Splash in chicken broth followed by whole milk. Whisk them together until they form a harmonious liquid backdrop.
Noodle Nest: Lay your fettuccine into the pan, submerging them in the liquid goodness. Seal the deal with a lid and let the noodles simmer till they reach your preferred bite texture.
Creamy Ascent: Whip off the lid and tone down the heat to medium. Pour in your heavy cream and keep stirring until the sauce achieves a dreamy thickness.
Cheese & Season: This is where your grated Parmesan comes into play, along with a dash of nutmeg and any additional salt and pepper to fine-tune the flavor.
Shrimp Curtain Call: Reintroduce the shrimp to the pan, ensuring they’re well-acquainted with the sauce and entangled with the fettuccine.
Finishing Touch: As if it couldn’t get any better, a sprinkle of fresh parsley heralds your dish is ready to serve.
