Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds cooked fresh shrimp
- 6 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 0.5 cup chopped parsley
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
- 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.75 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- salt to taste
- ground black pepper to taste
- 1 (16 ounce) package linguini pasta
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic, and sauté briefly to release flavor. Add cream; heat just to boiling, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to low; stir in shrimp, parsley, basil, and thyme. Continue cooking until shrimp are just heated through; remove sauce from heat.
- Drain pasta and toss lightly with cream sauce. Add Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper to taste; toss again and serve.
