Delicious Shrimp Broccoli Alfredo

Shrimp Broccoli Alfredo is a comforting and satisfying dish that combines the richness of the Alfredo sauce with the freshness of the shrimp and broccoli. It’s often served as a main course for a special dinner or occasion.

Ingredients:

8 oz fettuccine pasta (or pasta of your choice)

1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined

2 cups broccoli florets

2 tablespoons butter

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Salt and pepper, to taste

Pinch of nutmeg (optional)

Chopped parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until it’s al dente. Drain and set it aside.

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set them aside.

In the same skillet, add the broccoli florets and cook for a few minutes until they become tender-crisp.

Pour in the heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens and the cheese melts. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg (if desired).

Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss it in the Alfredo sauce until well coated.

Finally, add the cooked shrimp back to the skillet and heat everything through.

Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot. Enjoy
