Creamy Shrimp Alfredo Pasta Recipe

This Shrimp Alfredo Fettuccini is a major comfort food. There’s just something about a mountain of pasta consumed by rich creamy sauce, and studded with large, tender shrimp that has my name written all over it. It reminds me of my favorite dish at Olive Garden; seafood Alfredo.

I sent some leftovers of this pasta to my sisters house and she called me soon after to ask if I had posted it on my blog yet, adding, “This is better than any restaurant Alfredo I’ve ever tried!” It’s a winner.

Not to mention, the price you pay for 1 plate of this at Olive Garden could feed a family of six. It’s also surprisingly easy to make and is ready in under 30 minutes. My son LOVES it and I don’t have to remind him 100 times to take another bite.

Watch How to Make Creamy Shrimp Alfredo Pasta:

Ingredients for Creamy Shrimp Alfredo Pasta:

3/4 lb fettuccine or penne pasta
1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 Tbsp oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 Tbsp butter
1 garlic clove
1/3 cup white wine (I used Ste Chapelle Chardonay ~$6)*
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1/3 cup parmesan cheese
S&P to taste
Sprinkle of paprika
Parsley or basil for garnish if desired

*Want to Substitute the Wine?

No problem! Omit the white wine and squeeze some lemon juice into the sauce after adding the cream, adding the lemon juice to taste (about 1/2 medium lemon) then season to taste with salt, pepper and paprika. Use freshly squeezed lemon juice, not concentrate.

How to make Creamy Shrimp Alfredo Pasta:

1. Cook 3/4 lb fettuccini noodles in salted water according to package instructions and drain. Don’t rinse (this helps the sauce stick to the noodles better).

2. Lightly season shrimp with salt, pepper and paprika. Preheat a large skillet to med/high and add 1 Tbsp oil. Once oil is hot, add shrimp in a single layer and cook 1-2 min per side or just until fully cooked and no longer translucent. They should be golden/pink on the outside and opaque white on the inside. Don’t over-do it or they will be rubbery. Remove shrimp to a separate bowl.

3. In same pan, over medium/high heat, add 2 Tbsp butter and onion and sauté onion till golden. Stir in garlic and sauté another minute. Stir in 1/3 cup white wine and reduce to 25% scraping the bottom to deglaze the pan.

4.Stir in Cream and simmer for 2 min. Next, sprinkle the top with 1/3 cup parmesan (or add to taste) and stir just until creamy and smooth and remove from heat. Don’t boil or the cheese will separate from the cream. Add about 1/4 tsp paprika and season with S&P to taste.

5. Add the cooked shrimp and drained (un-rinsed pasta). Garnish with parsley, basil, extra parmesan or freshly cracked pepper if desired.

    My boyfriend cooked me this recipe for an anniversary recently and I loved it! He does not cook often but told me this is one of the few recipes he makes when he does. I was a little concerned the sauce wouldn’t thicken, but it as time would tell, it did so beautifully, and everything was great. Well-balanced flavors and was I

    This recipe came out great and was very versatile. I didn’t have enough cream but I had buttermilk leftover from another recipe, so I used half heavy cream and half buttermilk. Also used chicken stock as I was out of white wine. I didn’t have parmesan cheese but had asiago. Also added broccoli florets and red pepper. Used combo of seafood medley and shrimp. Even with all these substitutions it came out delicious.

      Hi Adriana, I have found that curdled or seperated cheese can result from overcooking the sauce once the cheese is in. You only want the cheese to melt and if you continue to heat it after adding it, it will become lumpy. I hope that helps! Also, I have found that butter helps with this issue so don’t skip the butter 🙂

    Excellent! The sauce was a bit thin; next time I will either simmer much longer or make a light roux and increase Parmesan. Flavor was fine, although mild. I may try using Old Bay in lieu of paprika. We enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing.

    The sauce didn’t thicken and I had to add corn starch. This may be due to the fact I had to use a sauce pan instead of a frying pan. It tasted like alcohol, which might be due to not reducing it enough. It lacked flavor most likely because 1/3 cup is a small amount of cheese. Overall, we decided against trying this recipe out again.

I am so grateful for this recipe 🤩 I am going to make it for a large crowd and was wondering if it’s best to make it in batches and keep it warm or do it all at once in a large pot? Do you have any suggestions? I’m making it for 25 ppl

    Well, first I forgot to add the wine that I bought specifically to use in this recipe….but it still turned out really well. It was much thinner – even without the wine – than in your video, but it did thicken up after a couple of minutes with the noodles. I bought some crab to make an alfredo with if the shrimp was good. Safe to say, the crab will be next. Thanks for a great recipe that I don’t need to buy a jar of sauce for!

    I am going to try this as my gf (american) asked me about this and if I could make it, so I had to google for a recipe 🙂

    Nevertheless, it must be said that this is not Italian cuisine. We do not make this.
    The only “Alfredo” sauce, which is actually not a commonly made thing, is just butter & parmesan, and it’s made creamy with the use of pasta water when mixing pasta with the cheese and butter, which adds starch and melting the cheese give the creaminess.

    my two cents 🙂

      I don’t believe anywhere in this recipe she refers to this dish as ‘Italian’. It is just a really great pasta dish. And, in actuality, pasta originated in China; this dish isn’t ‘Chinese’ either. I just don’t understand the need to be condescending about a delicious recipe .

      My two cents.

        It is mentioned in the yellow tab with all the recipe’s details:

        “Cuisine: Italian”

        Re the pasta origin, the thing of Marco Polo bringing it from his travel to China, that is a legend.
        “Pasta” originated in several places from Mediterranean area to the far East, independently, and with different ingredients. For example Chinese did not know wheat at the time.

        Besides the above, I did not want to diminish the recipe at all, and I am still going to try it.
        I was just pointing out that you cannot call it Italian cuisine, as it is something we do not do.
        Like other things that are common abroad, and sold as Italian, like chicken on pasta, or chicken on pizza, and so on 🙂

      Hi Carter, yes that would work, just simmer the half and half 5-7 minutes for it to thicken slightly before adding parmesan and once the pasta and shrimp are in, cover and let sit about 10 minutes off the heat or until sauce coats the noodles better. Enjoy!

    I have to admit I am not a huge fan of Alfredo anything. I made this because my husband like shrimp alfredo. This was absolutely the best and will be making it again. I followed the recipe as is and wouldn’t change a thing. Thank you Natasha for all your fabulous recopies.

    Even at low temp, cheese separated from sauce! Maybe add a note to cool between simmering cream and adding cheese.

    Ended up throwing the whole pot in the bin.

      Hi Danielle, I have only had that happen with overheating but it can also happen with using a light cream instead of heavy cream. The higher fat content in heavy cream helps to keep the sauce creamy without separating.

    I tried this out last week, and it was a HUGE hit with my family! A modification I did was use premade alfredo sauce to cut cooking time. I think heavy cream, compared to store alfredo sauce, would’ve reacted poorly with my dad’s lactose intolerance as well. But, the recipe was easy to follow, and who knew cooking shrimp was so simple! Thanks for the great recipe Natasha!

Amazing flavor, sometime I double the shrimp to be indulgent… but it’s amazing as it is. I was wondering if you could recommend a side dish instead of salad or an appetizer to pair with the creamy pasta? Thanks a lot for the recipe!

    I wanted to make a quick dinner with prawns…I LOVE Natasha’s Kitchen recipes, so I searched one out and found this one. I had already started heating jarred Alfredo sauce, but when I saw how easy this was I had to make my own! The jarred Alfredo went to the 🐕. This recipe was amazing….in every way, full of flavour and super quick and easy. I was worried that it didn’t thicken much, but after adding the cooked pasta and prawns to the sauce it turned out perfect. Will keep in my recipe book for future use.

    Buy the 12 oz pack of fettuccine so no guessing. This tastes delicious…the store only carried Barefoot chardonnay. It turned out great. This pasta tastes better than what is served at alot of restaurants. My 12 year old is a very picky eater and she went back for 2nds. Totally satisfied my craving and my husband finished it off. -Served with garlic knots. Thanks!!

    Made recipe exactly and although was good, was a little on the bland side for me. I will make it again but will definitely at least double the garlic, add more salt & pepper and parmesan cheese and maybe some cream cheese. Oh, and a bit more white wine 🙂

      Hi Leasa, it sounds like maybe too much pasta was added – that can make the dish seem blander, especially if you thought it needed more of the sauce essentially. Also, sometimes a little extra salt can really transform a dish. I hope that is helpful to you.

    Was a perfect starter. I tasted just your recipe and it tasted just like a restaurant alfredo recipe but I love cheese and garlic so I tripled the garlic amount. I also added about 1/2 cup mozzarella and 1/3 cup cream cheese (heaven in a pot). Oh and I was using this recipe not just for shrimp I also added 1 fillet of tilapia and about a pound of scallops. Thanks for this great recipe though. Was a great kickstarter.

    Thank you for your quick response. I never comment on recipes… this is a first. My husband is quite picky and I beleive out of all the alfredo recipes that I have made in the past and trying to find the ultimate one, well believe me, this one is it! I did tweak it a bit… We love seafood so much that I mixed shrimp, scallops and imitation crabmeat chunks. Since there was more seafood I had to add more cream and cheese to compensate the quantity of sauce. This is by far my ultimate seafood alfredo pasta recipe. Thank you.

    My husband, who can be quite discriminating with food, loved this dish when I made it. The only changes I made were:
    1) I bought raw, unpeeled shrimp. So I saved the shells and added a handful to the sauce once I added the wine. I let the shells simmer through the wine and cream and removed them right before adding the parmesan cheese. I learned from other seafood recipes that the shells enhance the flavor of the sauce.

    2) I added a little bit of the pasta water from the fettuccini to the simmering sauce.

    3) I added tad more cheese (it probably totaled just over half a cup) to thicken the sauce. That is just personal taste, however.

    4) I let the sauce simmer with the basil at the end, so it became more than a simply garnish for us.

    Overall, the directions were clear and easy to follow. I will definitely add this to the meal rotation. The shrimp was very flavorful and as soon as I tasted the sauce, I knew it was a home run. Thanks, Natasha!

She also found cooking knives in Italy which she repackaged with Cooking with Nonna logo on them and they’re always selling out. You could do the same thing except with Ukrainian and Russia.

      Hi Chasity, I don’t think it would work with almond milk – it would be very watery. I can’t think of anything that would thicken up the same way but you might really love a lighter sauce as on the shrimp scampi pasta which has no cream, or try our chicken florentine pasta which has no cream but is creamy.

          Hi Tanya, we love the flavor that wine gives to the sauce but one of my readers Karina, wrote the following review: “Instead of white wine I used chicken stock, but wow I could not believe the flavors!! I could go on forever but you all will have to try it yourself! Words don’t do this recipe justice!” I hope you love the recipe!

          Hi! Can I substitute the shrimp with a fish fillet? If so, what would be the best way to cook the fish for this dish? Thanks!

            Hi Lesya, I haven’t tested this recipe with fish but it should work. Pan frying, grilling, or baking fish should all work.

      Hi Beth, I haven’t tried freezing it but I think it could work well. You would want to thaw before reheating and then reheat slowly over lower heat and do not overheat or the cream can separate and turn buttery (as with any cream sauce).

      Hi Oksana, I usually don’t recommend using anything labeled “cooking wine” because those have additional additives. I haven’t tried that specific one so I’m not sure. I think it’s worth experimenting if that is what you have to work with. You might reduce the amount slightly to be safe.

    Why are you calling this Alfredo? I’ve been to Alfredo’s in Rome. There are 3 ingredients in an Alfredo sauce: Pasta, Butter, and Parmesan, PERIOD. This recipe was very good. You can call mine: Creamy Penne Shrimp. Yours should be called: Creamy Shrimp Pasta.

    Hi Natasha!
    Loved this recipe but my problem is I tend to oversalt or under salt things whenever there isn’t any instructions on the amount of salt 😬

    Was wondering if you know how much you put in the sause to make it just perfect

    Thank you !

      Hi Oksana, I wish I had written down how much it was specifically in the sauce. It does make a difference how much you season the shrimp though which is why it’s a good idea to season the sauce to taste and the parmesan adds saltiness as well so season to taste at the end. Sorry that’s not very precise…

      Hi Sue, yes that would work, just simmer the half and half 5-7 minutes for it to thicken slightly before adding parmesan and once the pasta and shrimp are in, cover and let sit about 10 minutes off the heat or until sauce coats the noodles better. Enjoy!

        Hi Natasha, (hey great name!!) I have found that if you try to cook pre-cooked shrimp they shrink and become rubbery. It’s doable but I’d recommend using raw shrimp for best results.
