Ingredients
- 1 lb shrimp cooked, peeled, and deveined; 90 count per pound
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp butter
- 5 cloves garlic minced
- 8 oz spaghetti
- 1 cup reserved pasta water
- 1 chicken bouillon cube
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 1/2 cups Italian four-cheese blend Mozzarella, White Cheddar, Provolone, Asiago
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley chives, or green onions
Instructions
- Heat olive oil and butter in a pan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and shrimp, cooking for about 2 minutes while stirring occasionally. Remove shrimp from the pan and set aside.
- In a separate pot, cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions. Drain and reserve 1 cup of the pasta water. Dissolve the chicken bouillon cube in the hot pasta water.
- Add the pasta water with dissolved bouillon, heavy cream, and cooked spaghetti to the skillet used for shrimp. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. As soon as it boils, add the cheese blend and continue stirring until the cheese melts and coats the pasta, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to simmer and cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring to thicken the sauce. Mix in half of the shrimp.
- To serve, top each plate with the remaining shrimp and garnish with chopped parsley, chives, or green onions.
