Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
Cook the fettuccine in a large pot of salted water until al dente, about 3 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook until bright orange, about 2-3 minutes. Add garlic, onions, and parsley, and sauté for another 2-3 minutes.
Stir in melted butter, cream cheese, and heavy cream, cooking until smooth. Add Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper, and simmer for 5 minutes until thickened.
Combine the cooked fettuccine with the shrimp mixture, tossing to coat. If desired, add fresh mozzarella on top.
Transfer to a baking dish and broil for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden.
Serve hot, garnished with additional Parmesan and parsley if desired.
