Cajun Shrimp Linguine Alfredo

So we  love pasta and spicy in our house.  This is the best of both worlds.

12 oz medium shrimp,  peeled and deveined
12 oz linguine, uncooked
1 1/2 T. unsalted butter
1/2 T. olive oil
1 jar of alfredo sauce
salt
black pepper, ground
garlic powder
Cajun spice blend

Place large pot of water on to boil.  While you are waiting for the water to heat up, season the shrimp with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder.  Then season to taste with the cajun spice.  Put on a small sauce pan to heat up the alfredo sauce, place on low to warm up.

Once the water is boiling, salt the water and place the pasta in the pot.  Cook according to package directions.

Heat a cast iron skillet on med-high; add butter and oil.  Add shrimp and cook until pink.

Drain pasta.  Add back to hot pot, add sauce and shrimp.  Toss and serve.
