I always prefer thick and creamy sauces like this creamy garlic sauce. This garlic shrimp fettuccine contains garlic chips that I finely chopped and when you bite into them they’re crunchy and garlicky. So good! This recipe also contains cream, mushrooms, asparagus, cheese, white wine, shrimp, and butter. How can you go wrong? It’s rich, delicious, and won’t disappoint.
