Cook the Pasta:

Boil water in a large pot with a pinch of salt. Cook pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve ½ cup of pasta water, then drain and set aside.

Prepare the Shrimp:

Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat.

Add shrimp, season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and opaque. Remove shrimp and set aside.

Make the Creamy Sauce:

In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Pour in heavy cream and stir in Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and lemon juice. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add reserved pasta water to thin out the sauce if needed.

Combine Everything:

Return shrimp to the skillet and toss with the sauce.

Add the cooked pasta and mix well, ensuring the noodles are fully coated.

Serve & Garnish:

Plate the pasta in a white bowl. Sprinkle with fresh parsley for a pop of color.

Serve immediately and enjoy while warm!
