Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Melt butter in a large frying pan. Add garlic and shrimp. Cook on medium-high heat until the shrimp is until they begin to curl and become opaque. Add broth and cream cheese. Stir until the cream cheese has melted and broth has slightly thickened. Add to spaghetti and toss until mixed.
Comments: I love Shrimp Scampi but wanted to give it a different twist. That is where the cream cheese came in. I used large shrimp which I cut in half, but you can use other sizes. As for the cream cheese, you can add more or less depending on your own desire. This turned out simply delicious and the sauce coated the spaghetti perfectly. I also used veggie spaghetti making it a little healthier.
