Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt
12 ounces fettucine
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
One 12-ounce jar roasted red peppers, drained and sliced in 1/2-inch-thick strips
1 teaspoon sweet or smoked paprika
2 cups heavy cream
1 pound medium peeled and deveined shrimp, tails removed
1 1/2 cups grated Parmesan
1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions for al dente. Drain and set aside.
