My favorite pasta dish, Alfredo can host many different meats and vegetables. Chicken, Sausage, almost any seafood. I like to use zucchini, carrots, mushrooms, broccoli, and green onion. But not today. Just fresh shrimp. I always under cook the pasta so that it finishes a little chewy but tender in the Sauce. In a large saucepan on medium high to high, I put 1 1/2 tablespoons butter and 1 pint whipping cream. By the way, this serves 4-6 hungry people. As the sauce starts to boil and reduce I add 1 teaspoon fresh crushed garlic, salt, ground pepper, and a couple handfuls of shredded Parmesan. Never dried or powdered. Then I stir in 1 lb. shrimp that I've cooked separately and continue to stir as the sauce thickens. When it's close to oozy goodness I add the noodles and kill the heat. I serve with a little more Parmesan on top and slices of warm garlic bread.
