👨‍🍳 Instructions

Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil.

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Saute garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Add Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.

Add shrimp and cook for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes.

Turn shrimp over and cook, about 1 to 1 1/2 minute more.

Transfer to a bowl and cover with aluminum foil to keep warm, leaving the butter in the skillet.

Place pasta in the boiling water; cook until tender yet firm to the bite, 8 to 10 minutes.

Add flour to the butter in the skillet; cook for 30 seconds.

Add milk, cream, lemon juice, and soy sauce.

Reduce heat to medium-low.
