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:
- Peel and devein the shrimp.
- Trim the ends of the zucchini and slice them thin, about 1/8 inch thick.
- Bring the water and salt to a boil in a saucepan. Add the pasta and return to a boil. Cook, stirring, for 8 to 9 minutes, or according to package instructions. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid.
- Meanwhile, heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add the shrimp and garlic and cook briefly, stirring. Do not allow the garlic to brown. Add the zucchini, tomatoes, pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, over high heat for about 3 minutes.
- Return the pasta to the cooking kettle. Add the shrimp mixture, reserved cooking liquid, basil, cheese, if desired, and butter. Toss well over medium high heat and serve very hot after checking the seasoning.
Tips:
- Use fresh shrimp for the best flavor. Frozen shrimp can work, but fresh shrimp will give your dish a more vibrant taste.
- Cook the shrimp until they are just opaque. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
- Use a good quality fettuccine pasta. The pasta should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite.
- Make sure the sauce is creamy and flavorful. Use a combination of heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and garlic to create a rich and delicious sauce.
- Add some fresh herbs to the dish for extra flavor. Basil, oregano, and parsley are all good choices.
- Serve the dish immediately. Shrimp fettuccine is best when it is served hot and fresh.
