Ingredients:

• 350g of pasta (fettuccine or your choice)

• 2 tablespoons of olive oil
• 4 cloves of finely chopped garlic
• 1 cup of heavy cream
• 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese

3. In the same skillet, add more olive oil if necessary and sauté the finely chopped garlic until fragrant but not browned.
4. Pour the heavy cream into the skillet and heat it over medium heat. Add the grated Parmesan cheese and stir until the mixture is smooth and the cheese has melted.
5. Return the shrimp to the skillet and cook for a few more minutes to allow them to soak up the sauce. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
