For a richer flavor, substitute heavy cream for half-and-half. Freshly grated Parmesan cheese is highly recommended for the best flavor and texture. Do not overcook the shrimp, as it will become rubbery. Adjust the amount of garlic and Parmesan cheese to your personal preference. A pinch of red pepper flakes adds a nice touch of heat. Serve with a side of garlic bread for a complete and satisfying meal.
