Instructions
- 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.
- While pasta is boiling, heat 1 tablespoon butter and olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat.
- Toss shrimp with garlic, lemon zest, salt & pepper. Add to the heated pan and cook just until shrimp turns pink, about 2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, bring remaining 4 tablespoons butter and cream to a simmer. Let simmer about 5-7 minutes or until slightly thickened.
- Stir in parmesan cheese and a pinch of nutmeg.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the shrimp with any juices. Toss with cooked fettuccine adding additional pasta water if needed.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and additional parmesan.
