Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook pasta at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, 7 to 8 minutes.
- While the pasta is cooking, melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and garlic; saute until the shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove shrimp to a covered dish; keep warm.
- Add asparagus and water to the hot skillet; cover and steam until the asparagus is tender-crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Add tomatoes; steam until heated through, 3 to 4 minutes. Uncover and reduce heat to medium. Drain pasta and add to the skillet. Add shrimp, Parmesan cheese, and half-and-half, stirring gently to combine. Cook until sauce thickens, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Sprinkle with parsley and season with pepper to serve.

SHRIMP ASPARAGUS ALFREDO PASTA
This is a creamy, garlicky and buttery dish that is easy to prepare. Your entire kitchen will smell amazing while preparing this dish. This is one your mouth will definitely enjoy. This recipe is not for those who are looking for low calories or fat. Go easy on the salt because Parmesan is naturally a salty cheese. I hope you enjoy making it as much as I did.
