Make the Alfredo Sauce:
In the same skillet used for the shrimp, melt butter over medium heat. Add the garlic powder and sauté for about 30 seconds.
Add the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, and cook for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
