Garlic Parmesan Pasta With Spicy Shrimp

I am HUGE fan of pasta! I can't think of a pasta dish I don't like. Oh and don't get me started on cheese, garlic and shrimp. More of my favorites! So it's easy to see that this dish is a winner. 

The dish comes together easily. Perfect for a easy weeknight meal or even date night! You'll have yummy creamy pasta and delicious shrimp on the table in a flash! 


Here's what you'll need for 4 servings:

2 tsp plus 1 tbsp olive oil 
4 cloves of garlic, minced
2 tbsp butter
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
4 cups chicken stock
1/2 lb angel hair pasta
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
3/4 cup heavy cream
2 tbsp parsley 
1 lb medium sized shrimp
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp black pepper 


Heat oven to 450 

Season shrimp w last 4 seasonings. Drizzle w tbsp of olive oil, stir and set aside. 

In a large pot, heat the remaining olive oil on med/low heat. Add the garlic and stir for 1-2 minutes. DO NOT let it burn. Mix in butter until melted. Add salt, pepper and chicken stock. Turn the heat up to high and let it come to a boil.

Once it's boiling, add pasta and cook following directions on package.  

While pasta is cooking, transfer shrimp to a baking sheet and place in oven for 10 minutes. 

Reduce to medium heat and mix in the Parmesan cheese until completely melted and combined. Turn off heat and stir in the cream and parsley. 

Top with shrimp and serve. 

Enjoy!!!
