Ingredients :
  • 12 ounces fettuccine
  • 5 tablespoons salted butter divided
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ pound medium shrimp peeled & deveined, tails removed if desired
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • ½ teaspoon salt to taste
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper to taste
  • 1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 ½ cups shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1 pinch ground nutmeg optional
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Directions :
  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add fettuccine and cook al dente (just until cooked). Drain, reserving ½ cup pasta water. Set aside.
