- While pasta cooks, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add 1 pound shrimp and 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until shrimp turn pink.
- Pour in 1/2 cup dry white wine (like Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc).
- Cook for 1 minute, or until most of the wine has evaporated.
- Stir in 2 cups Alfredo sauce (store-bought or homemade).
- Add a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste and the reserved pasta water, as needed, to adjust consistency.
- Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet and toss to combine. Serve immediately, garnished with extra basil if desired.
