Shrimp & Cheese Casserole

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with olive oil.
2. In a large pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant.
3. Add shrimp to the pan, cook until pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
4. In a separate saucepan, warm the heavy cream over low heat. Once heated, stir in mozzarella and Parmesan cheese until smooth and creamy.
5. In a large bowl, combine cooked pasta, shrimp, and cheese sauce. Mix well to coat all ingredients.
6. Transfer the pasta mixture to the prepared baking dish. Top with remaining mozzarella cheese.
7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
8. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Chef’s Tips

• Use fresh shrimp for the best flavor, but frozen will work if thawed properly.
• Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
• Customize the cheese blend with your favorites like cheddar or gouda.
