How to Make Velvet Shrimp

- Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped onions and 2 cloves minced garlic. Cook for 1 minute.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook for 1 minute more.
- Add 1 pound shrimp and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until pink and opaque. Remove from skillet and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour and 1 cup heavy cream until smooth.
- Pour the cream mixture into the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
- Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
- Reduce heat to low. Stir in 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
- Return the shrimp to the skillet and heat through.
