Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 3 cloves garlic, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon chopped parsley, or to taste
• 8 slices bacon, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
• 0.25 cup white wine
• 0.5 (16 ounce) package dry fettuccine pasta
• 1.5 pounds uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Step 2

Meanwhile, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain.

Step 3

Place bacon in a 12-inch oven-safe skillet over medium heat; cook and stir until browned and crispy, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove bacon, leaving the drippings in the skillet.

Step 4

Melt butter in the same skillet and add chopped garlic. Cook and stir until garlic is fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in white wine and cook for about 2 minutes. Stir in mustard until well combined.

Step 5

Remove from heat, add shrimp in a single layer, and bake in the preheated oven until the shrimp are curled, pink, and no longer translucent, 10 to 12 minutes.

Step 6

Serve cooked shrimp over pasta, sprinkle with bacon pieces, and garnish with parsley.
