Spicy Version: Add extra chili flakes or a drizzle of sriracha to bring some heat to the dish.
Cream-Free Option: Skip the heavy cream for a lighter version and increase the white wine or broth for a more broth-like sauce.
Seafood Medley: Add scallops or clams alongside the shrimp for a luxurious seafood pasta.
Vegetable Boost: Toss in some baby spinach, cherry tomatoes, or asparagus for added color and nutrients.

Perfect Shrimp: Shrimp cook quickly, so keep an eye on them. Overcooking will make them rubbery and tough.
Cream Substitution: If you want a dairy-free version, use canned coconut cream for a similar creamy texture.
Wine Alternative: If you prefer not to use wine, substitute with vegetable stock and a little extra lemon juice for acidity.
Starchy Water Trick: Reserve pasta water to help emulsify the sauce, making it cling to the pasta perfectly.
Make it Fresh: Garnish with extra parsley and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese for added flavor and presentation.
