Cajun Shrimp Alfredo

This recipe is actually my version of a certain restaurants pasta dish. It's easy and quick to make and it's really tasty. I use my homemade cajun/creole seasoning ( https://cookpad.wasmer.app/us/recipes/2997167-homemade-cajuncreole-seasoning ) to make this up, so if the seasoning you use has a lot of heat to it, you may need to adjust the amount you add.

Steps
- 1
Place a large pot of water over high heat. Once it comes to a boil, cook the pasta according to package directions and drain it. Return the drained pasta to the pot and set it aside.

While waiting on the water to boil, in a large, deep skillet, heat the 1 tbsp. butter over med-high heat. Once it's melted, add the shrimp. Season it with 1 tsp. of the cajun seasoning and cook until it is pink and opaque. Remove it to a plate, cover the shrimp with foil and set it aside.
- 3
Place the cream, the 1/2 cup butter and the cream cheese into the same skillet. Whisk it together often while it all melts.
- 4
Once the butter and cream cheese are melted and smooth, whisk in the remaining 2 tsp of cajun seasoning, the pepper, the onion powder, the garlic, the tomatoes, the parmesan and the gouda. Whisk until the cheese melts completely.
- 5
Allow the sauce to simmer for 5 or so minutes, to thicken up. Then combine the sauce and the shrimp with the pasta in the pot. Toss everything together until it's all incorporated.

Serve immediately and enjoy. Refrigerate any leftovers.
