In a bowl, season the shrimp with garlic powder, paprika, and red pepper flakes.

Add 1 teaspoon of black pepper and 2 teaspoons of kosher salt to the shrimp and mix until well coated.

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil.

Cook the shrimp in the skillet for 4 minutes, then remove from the pan and set aside.

Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the same skillet.

Sauté 1/2 cup of chopped onion in the butter for 2 minutes.

Add 2 cloves of minced garlic to the onions and continue to sauté for an additional 2 minutes.

Pour in 1/2 cup of white wine and 2 cups of heavy cream, bringing the mixture to a light simmer.

Add 1 cup of parmesan cheese to the simmering mixture and mix well until combined.

Return the cooked shrimp to the pan, then add the cooked fettuccine and mix until well coated.

Top with fresh parsley and continue cooking for an additional 4 minutes.
