📝 Ingredients

• 1/2 lb. (8 oz.) fettuccine
• 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
• 2 Tbsp. all purpose flour
• 1/2 cup dry white wine
• 1 cup milk (I used 1%)
• salt and pepper to taste
• 3/4 cup parmesan cheese

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1--- For the Pasta: ---
2. 2Cook fettuccine in very salty water until al dente. Drain, set aside, and return empty pot to the stove.
3. 3Melt butter in pot over medium heat.
4. 4When butter is melted, whisk in flour to form a roux. Cook for 1 minute.
5. 5Slowly add white wine to roux, whisking constantly to incorporate. The mixture will thicken pretty quickly - just keep whisking!
6. 6Add milk to mixture and whisk to combine. Bring mixture to a low simmer, whisking frequently, then remove from heat and stir in salt, pepper, and cheese. Stir until cheese has melted and you have a smooth sauce.
7. 7--- For the Shrimp: ---
8. 8Heat oil in a medium-sized skillet until shimmering. Add garlic, shrimp, salt and pepper and stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until shrimp is pink and cooked through. Shrimp quicks very quickly, so keep an eye on it - they shouldn't take more than 5 or 6 minutes!
9. 9--- To Assemble: ---
10. 10Add cooked pasta and shrimp to sauce pot and toss to combine. Top with fresh chopped parsley for garnish and serve immediately.
