Recipe View 1 mins Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley and lemon wedges. Offer additional Parmesan cheese at the table.

For an even richer sauce, use heavy cream instead of half-and-half.
A pinch of red pepper flakes adds a nice touch of heat.
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese is highly recommended for the best flavor.
Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the shrimp; cook in batches if necessary to ensure even cooking.
Adjust the amount of black pepper to your preference.
For a brighter flavor, add a squeeze of lemon juice to the sauce at the end.
