Ingredients:

• 1 pound shrimp tails on or off

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• 2 tbsp unsalted butter

• 6 cloves garlic minced

• 1/2 cup dry white wine

• 1 1/2 cups heavy cream

• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

3. Pour the cream and stir to mix. Season with salt and pepper to taste and simmer for a few minutes.

4. Add the parmesan cheese, and allow to simmer until the cheese is incorporated and the sauce thickens.

6. Enjoy while it’s still hot over pasta, steamed vegetables, or dip some bread into the sauce.
