Red Lobster Shrimp Pasta

By Booper-2

This Red Lobster Shrimp Pasta copycat recipe is delicious. I used a pinot grigio wine but you could substitute chicken broth if you didn't want to use alcohol.

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 3 garlic cloves (I added more!)
• 1 pound shrimp, peeled, deveined and tails removed
• 2/3 cup clam juice (or chicken broth)
• 1/3 cup white wine
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons cream cheese
• 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated
• 1/4 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
• 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
• 8 ounces pasta, cooked and drained, I used linguine
