Adapted from Allrecipes.com
Makes 4 servings

Ingredients
  • 5 cups cooked pasta
  • 3 tablespoons each butter & olive oil
  • 4 cloves minced garlic
  • 40 shrimp peeled & deveined
  • 1 teaspoon flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

  • Stir in the cheese.
  • Add the shrimp back and cook just for a minute to heat through.
  • Add the pasta and parsley and give it a toss. It's ready to serve. Squeeze a little lemon on it before you eat it. Yummy!
Tips:
  • You could make this with chunks of chicken breast.
