Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups Reduced Fat Cream
• 6 cloves Minced Garlic
• 1 tablespoon Olive Oil

• 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
• Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Shrimp:

   • In the same skillet, melt unsalted butter over medium heat.
   • Saute minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

   • Let the mixture gently simmer, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Parmesan Perfection:
   • Stir in grated Parmesan cheese and let the sauce simmer for another minute until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.

   • Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
   • Adjust seasoning if needed.
7. Plate and Serve:
