Lemon Garlic Shrimp Alfredo 🍋🍤

I tried this shrimp Alfredo at one of my favourite restaurants and became obsessed with it, so I went home and recreated it. After a lot of tweaking, it tastes exactly how I remember it.

Creamy, lemony, garlicky, and finished with a lemon tomato sofrito and crispy fried capers.
