• Shrimps - 300 gr.
• Olive oil -2 tbsp.
• Cream 10% -20% fat - 200 ml.
• Garlic - 3-4 cloves
• Parmesan - 100 gr.
• Salt - 1 tsp
• Ground black pepper - 0.5 tsp
• Dry basil - 0.5 tsp

Directions

1. Prepare all ingredients. Defrost and clean shrimp.
2. Grate Parmesan on a coarse grater at the end of cooking, add it on top of the finished dish.
3. Press the peeled garlic with the flat side of a knife. Divide in half. Finely cutting it is not necessary. Let's move on to making the cream sauce. Heat up a skillet with olive oil and toss in the garlic. Fry for a couple of minutes over medium heat. Press down on each piece with a fork. During this time, the garlic will give its flavor to the olive oil.
4. Now remove the garlic and throw in the peeled shrimp. Fry over medium heat for 2-3 minutes.
5. Pour in the cream, season with salt and spices to taste. I literally throw in a pinch of salt, season with black pepper and add dry basil. Boil. See those little bubbles? The sauce began to boil, literally within a minute let the sauce thicken and you can turn off the fire.
6. Boil fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente in salted water. So that they do not stick together, it is better to stir them more often and initially pour more water into the pan. Drain the water.
7. Add to sauce and mix well. Fettuccine in a creamy shrimp sauce is ready. Place on serving plate and sprinkle with grated parmesan. Add parsley or fresh basil if desired. Serve immediately. Hope the recipe was helpful. Enjoy your meal.
