Ingredients

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined

4 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons butter

1 cup heavy cream

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

4 cups mashed potatoes

2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Directions

Melt the butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until it's fragrant and golden, about 1 minute.

Add the shrimp to the pan, cooking until they turn pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp and set aside.

Pour the heavy cream into the pan, scraping the bottom to release any brown bits for extra flavor. Simmer gently for 3-4 minutes.

Stir in the Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Continue stirring until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.

Return the shrimp to the pan, making sure they are well coated with the sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Serve the creamy garlic shrimp over a bed of fluffy mashed potatoes and garnish with chopped parsley.
