2 tbsp all-purpose flour
2 tbsp butter
1 tbsp olive oil
1 cup chicken broth low sodium

salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese grated
1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped

Instructions

1. Cook fettuccine according to package instructions.

2. Sprinkle the shrimp with 1 tbsp of cajun spice and toss well.

3. Drizzle the flour over the shrimp and toss in a bowl to make sure each shrimp is covered in flour.

4. In a deep skillet add the butter and olive oil and heat over high heat. Add shrimp and cook on each side about 2 min until crisp. Remove shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
