Cajun Pasta

Ingredients: 
​8 oz pasta of your choice 
1 lb raw shrimp, tail removed
2 tbsp Cajun Seasoning
1 tsp Granulated Garlic
1 tsp Granulated Onion 
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp butter
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
​Parsley for garnish 

Directions: 
​Cook pasta according to the box directions. Before draining, scoop out at the very least 1/2 cup from the cooking water. Drain pasta and reserve.
As the pasta is cooking, cook the shrimp and sauce. Combine shrimp with the Cajun Seasoning, Granulated Garlic, Granulated Onion, and olive oil in bowl. Toss to mix.
Heat large skillet over med-high heat. Add butter and melt. Add shrimp in one layer and cook until golden brown on each side, turning only one time. You might have to cook shrimp in two batches to permit enough space. Once done cooking, transfer cooked shrimp to some clean plate and reduce heat to medium low.
Add heavy cream to pan and scrape bottoms release a any food that’s stuck to underneath. Allow cream to bubble. Reduce heat to low and stir in parmesan cheese to melt. Add cooked pasta and shrimp and stir to coat. If sauce must be thinned, add pasta water, one tablespoon at the same time, until desired consistency is achieved.
Top with more parmesan cheese and Parsley.
