Instructions
- Rinse and dry shrimp. In a medium-sized bowl, toss shrimp in seasoning salt and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons butter and garlic over medium heat until butter is melted. Add shrimp and sauté until shrimp becomes pink and opaque.
- Remove shrimp from skillet, cover, and set aside.
- In the same skillet (do not wipe clean), add 4 tablespoons butter, milk, cream cheese, salt, and pepper, whisking often. Heat until cream cheese is melted and completely smooth (not quite boiling).
- Add parmesan cheese and whisk until smooth.
- Add pasta to skillet and toss until pasta in coated in Alfredo sauce. Add more milk if needed to thin sauce if it is too thick.
- Add cooked shrimp and serve!
Notes
- It's important to freeze the sauce only, not the noodles or shrimp. Alfredo sauce is always best when it's served fresh, but you can freeze it to use later. Here are some tips for the best results!
- Freeze the sauce quickly after cooking.
- Use a really thick, airtight freezer-safe container for storage.
- Thaw completely in the refrigerator before reheating.
- Finally, stir constantly when reheating in the microwave or stovetop to prevent the ingredients from separating.
