Instructions

Keep Screen Awake

Pasta

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the fettuccine and cook al dente according to package directions (about 8-10 minutes). Drain and set aside.

Shrimp

To a large bowl, add shrimp, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss to evenly coat.
To a large skillet over medium-high heat, add oil. Once hot, add shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and tent to keep warm.

Sauce

Reduce heat to medium. To the same skillet the shrimp was cooked, add butter. When melted, add onions and cook until softened, about 3-5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for an additional minute.
Add heavy cream, parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and red pepper. Stir until the cheese melts and the sauce is smooth.
Add pasta to the skillet. Toss to coat. Continue cooking until the sauce thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
Top the pasta with the cooked shrimp.
Garnish with parsley. Serve.
