Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt generously. Add the pasta, and boil according to package directions until al dente, tender but still slightly firm. Strain, and toss with a splash of oil.
- Meanwhile, arrange the shrimp in a single layer on a large pie pan or paper plate, and pat them with a paper towel until completely dry. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and add 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter melts, raise the heat to medium-high, and invert the plate of shrimp over the skillet so the shrimp fall into the pan all at once. Cook the shrimp, without moving them, until the underside is pink, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the shrimp, and cook until fully pink and cooked through, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the shrimp to a bowl.
- Reduce the heat to medium, and add the remaining 6 tablespoons butter. Scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to release any browned bits. When the butter has mostly melted, whisk in the cream and nutmeg and bring to a simmer, then cook for 2 minutes. Lower the heat to keep the sauce warm.
- Whisk the Parmigiano-Reggiano into the sauce. Add the shrimp and cooked pasta, and toss well. Season with salt and pepper. Serve hot in heated bowls.

Steps:
- Rinse the chicken and the shrimp, pat dry. Drizzle olive oil over both sides of the chicken breast and over the shrimp, season both with garlic salt and pepper. Oil the grill grates and preheat grill to medium-high. Thread the shrimp onto wooden skewers that have been soaking in water for at least 1 hour. Place the chicken directly over the flame and the shrimp on the top rack of your grill. Grill the shrimp until it is cooked through (they should be pink) and golden brown. Grill the chicken for 8 to 10 minutes on each side or until no longer pink in the middle. Remove both from grill and allow to cool. Slide or chop the cooked chicken. You can cut the shrimp in half too if you desire. If it's too early to grill, simply season the chicken breast and cut in bite sized pieces and saute in olive oil over medium high heat turning frequently until brown and crispy and cooked through. Then do the same with the shrimp. Shrimp will turn bright pink when finished cooking and only take a few minutes of sauteing on each side. Cook the fettuccine according the package directions. Drain well and set aside. In a medium saucepan, add the butter and melt over medium heat. Whisk in flour, stirring to combine. Allow to cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Slowly whisk in the heavy cream. Allow to come to a slow simmer. Reduce heat to low and add the parmesan cheese. Stir continually, until the cheese has all melted and the sauce has thickened. Add the garlic salt and pepper; stir to combine. Add the chicken and shrimp to the sauce. Pile fettuccine onto a plate or in a bowl, pour sauce over top, and enjoy!

"This has always been a favorite, so when I started cooking healthier, I tried different ways to lighten it. Less butter and fat-free half-and-half worked well, along with using a little flour to thicken the sauce. " Evelyn Slade - Fruita, CO

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients. The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your dish, so be sure to use the freshest shrimp, pasta, and vegetables you can find.
- Cook the shrimp properly. Overcooked shrimp are tough and chewy, so be careful not to overcook them. Cook the shrimp until they are just opaque and pink, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Make sure the pasta is al dente. Al dente pasta is cooked through but still has a slight bite to it. This is the perfect texture for fettuccine Alfredo.
- Use a good quality Alfredo sauce. You can either make your own Alfredo sauce or use a store-bought sauce. If you are using a store-bought sauce, be sure to choose one that is made with real cream and Parmesan cheese.
- Add your favorite vegetables. This recipe is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. Add any vegetables you like to the sauce, such as broccoli, zucchini, or mushrooms.
- Serve immediately. Fettuccine Alfredo is best served immediately after it is made. The pasta will start to absorb the sauce and become soggy if it sits for too long.
Conclusion:
Fettuccine Alfredo with Grilled Shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy Alfredo sauce, tender shrimp, and al dente pasta, this dish is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try.
