Equipment

Ingredients

  • 4 Tablespoons butter
  • 2 teaspoons jarred minced garlic
  • 2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • ⅔ cup whole milk
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 eggs (slightly beaten)
  • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese (shredded)
  • 6 ounces cream cheese (room temperature)
  • 8 ounces of uncooked pasta (any shape)
  • 1 pound shrimp thawed (I buy peeled, deveined, & tails off)
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese (shredded)
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large pot, cook the pasta until al dente according to the package directions.
  • At the same time, in a medium saucepan, melt the butter on medium heat.
  • Stir in the minced garlic and flour and cook, stirring constantly, until bubbly.
  • Gradually stir in the milk, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir for about 2 - 3 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Using a colander, drain the pasta and allow it to cool.
  • In a medium bowl, mix the beaten egg, Parmesan cheese, and room-temperature cream cheese and set aside.
  • Spray a large oven-safe skillet (or a 9x13-inch baking dish) with non-stick spray.
  • Stir together the milk mixture, the cheese mixture, the uncooked shrimp, and the cooked pasta.
  • Pour the cheesy garlic shrimp alfredo pasta mixture into the prepared dish.
  • Sprinkle on the shredded mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake for 40 minutes.
  • Allow it to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

  • I buy shrimp that is labeled "peeled, deveined, and tails off" for much easier prep.
  • Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1-2 days. The pasta will dry out a bit as it sits.
