Shrimp Tortellini with Lemon Garlic Cream Sauce

Instructions:

1. Cook the Tortellini:

   • Cook the tortellini according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

2. Sauté the Shrimp:

   • Season the shrimp with salt and pepper.
   • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until pink and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

3. Make the Lemon Garlic Cream Sauce:

   • In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the butter.
   • Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
   • Stir in the heavy cream, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.

4. Add Parmesan and Combine:

   • Stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
   • Add the cooked tortellini and shrimp to the skillet, tossing to coat everything in the lemon garlic cream sauce. Adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or lemon juice, if needed.

5. Serve:

   • Garnish with fresh parsley and lemon slices if desired. Serve immediately.
