Ingredients
1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
4 tbsp unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup heavy cream
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
¼ tsp paprika (for topping)
Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat oven’s broiler setting.
In a skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tbsp butter. Add garlic and sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
Add shrimp and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until pink and cooked through. Remove shrimp and set aside.
In the same pan, add remaining butter, heavy cream, Parmesan, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 2–3 minutes until slightly thickened.
Return shrimp to the pan and stir to coat in the sauce.
Transfer to an oven-safe dish and top with mozzarella cheese and a sprinkle of paprika.
Broil for 2–3 minutes until golden and bubbly. Watch closely to avoid burning.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.
