This is a copycat recipe, but it's delicious. I used a pinot grigio wine but you could substitute chicken broth if you didn't want to use alcohol.

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 garlic cloves (I added more!)
1 lb shrimp, peeled, deveined and tails removed
2/3 cup clam juice (or chicken broth)
1/3 cup white wine
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated
1/4 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
8 ounces pasta, cooked and drained, I used linguine

Directions

1
Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic; reduce heat to low. Simmer until garlic is tender.
2
Add shrimp and cook over medium-low heat until opaque. Remove, reserve liquid in pan.
3
Add clam juice (or chicken broth) and bring to a boil.
4
Add wine; cook over medium high heat for three (3) minutes, stirring constantly.
5
Reduce heat to low; add cream, stirring constantly.
6
Add cheese, stirring until smooth. Cook until thickened.
7
Add shrimp back in to sauce. Heat thoroughly.
8
Add remaining ingredients except pasta.
9
Put pasta in a large bowl and pour sauce over pasta; toss gently to coat.
10
Serve with additional grated parmesan cheese.

Yummy! I didn't really measure anything, and I used the recipe only as a guide. I used some lemon flavored olive oil along with regular. I also added less than 1/4 cup of chopped sun dried tomatoes in oil. I, too, used the green cap cheese, but it was still great. I'd make this again. Mine was plenty creamy without any cream cheese. Maybe I used more cream and that took care of it. Definitely a keeper.

This recipe was perfect, but there is one thing missing - two tablespoons of cream cheese. The one thing I love about the dish at Red Lobster is how creamy it is and when I made this for the first time, my 'sauce' was thin. I searched around on the Internet until I found what was called "Red Lobster Alfredo Sauce" and it had these exact same ingredients but with two tablespoons of cream cheese. After I added that, perfection! It can be added to the dish when the heavy cream is placed into the pan, and heated until smooth.
